He's not that tasty, but I'll eat him anyway...

Researchers have claimed that cannabilistic species of spiders find their husband prey less tasty CLICK HERE

In a week where octopusses were observed using tools, (CLICK HERE) it seems the eight-legged amongst us are getting ideas. If a crab opens a burger bar in the next few days, I'm booked on one of Branson's new Virgin Galactic flights... you mark my words!

All creatures small are great!

Gavin John Powers

GAVIN is a 36-year-old former production journalist and Mac operator, born and bred in South Yorkshire, UK, with a lifelong passion for the little creepie-crawlies, so many find detestable.

By (at least) the age of nine, he would evade his parents on family holidays, on his personal quest for crickets and other arthropods. A passion he would carry, through his many personal trials and tribulations, into adulthood.

Self-taught on the subject of arachnida, Gavin prides himself on his knowledge of spiders in particular. He also has a limited knowledge of scorpions and some British insects, crustaceans and other arthropods.

This website is a quarry unto which Gavin has plundered much of what he has read and observed over the course of the last ten years, relating to our eight-legged friends.

Gavin lists as his natural history heroes, Sir David Attenborough, Dr. George McGavin, Chris Packham, Mike Dilger, Steve Backshall and David Bellamy OBE, and the late Steve Irwin.
