@Outdated, someone rediscovered a giant spider in Australia. It's about time, this is what Australia needs more of, creepy wildlife. :D
I have been worried you guys would run out of it. ;)


One thing about this that puzzled me, it says they found some in a town called Eidsvold. That does not sound like an English word, it sounds Norwegian and there is a famous place here called Eidsvoll. So I looked into it a little and that town Eidsvold was named after a farm owned by two Norwegian brothers. Eidsvold Station. And they named the farm after Eidsvoll here in Norway because they arrived on the farm on May 17th and that's when our constitution was written at Eidsvoll. So that's a little special, you guys have a town with a Norwegian name. Which is full of giant spiders of course. Yay Australia :D

At best estimates less than one third of our wildlife has been named and documented. A few years back a young biologist "discovered" a new species of gecko and asked Darwin residents to report sightings, to us it was just a common tree gecko, the things are everywhere. Local people showed him 6 other species that were also unrecorded.

We got a lot of Swedes Danes and Norseman come to Australia around that time. Why would they all want to disappear to remote places on the other side of the world? End of the pirating era I think. :)

They probably ran away from something they did here. Hiding in the bush in Australia. ;) Or maybe they just raided Australia.
 
Enzo’s favorite toy is Mr. Snail. They are inseparable.
So yesterday I bought all the snails at Petsmart so he can always have a backup Mr. Snail if something happens to him.
