Huge spider crawled under my hood

Sun spider. It isn't really a spider. It's something straight out of Hell.

Also called a camel spider, those things are freakin' scary. It is an arachnid but not a spider, think of it as a cross between a spider and scorpion.

Those front 2 aren't legs, they are feelers. The other small 2 in the middle near its mouth is what it uses to chop up its food.

I used to have a tarantula as a pet when I was a kid. I loved watching her feed on moths and grub worms. I was sad when she died...

When I moved to New Mexico, I started collecting scorpions to see if they would fight. The biggest scorpions in my area were the whip scorpions. Big, black, and fun to watch.

Now those things I hated when I was in NM. They're a bit freaky.
