The body was not that much larger, but it had long, hairless legs, sort of like a daddy long legs on steroids!
Continuing the culinary theme, it covered an area the size of a dinner plate when it was walking.

Sure it was a spider, not a cancle? Long long legs, square body with crab-like pincers and long anntenae. Called a false scorpion or whip tail
scorpion in English, but in fact neither a spider nor a scorpion. Harmless, have no toxin. |
Sounds like the critter we found, except the claws had spines,not pincers. It was huge!
