Also add the Hobo Spider, found in the Northwest of the US and western
Canada. It's an introduced species from Europe. See
http://hobospider.org/
WARNING, for those who are seriously arachnophobic, there is a huge
picture of one of these spiders on this site, right at the top of the
page.
In the story of the ferret who died, did the owner see the spider that bit
the ferret? Is there any idea of what kind it was?
And to Amy, whose dad works in the Ford plant, do you know what kind of
spiders are up there by the lights? I'm asking on behalf of some folks
who are very interested in spiders. You can email me off list so as not
to turn this into the Spider Mailing List. :-)
Thanks,
Karen
