Huntsman spider

On average, a huntsman spider's leg span can reach up to 6 inches (15 cm), while their bodies measure about 0.7 inches (1.8 cm) long.

Like most spiders, apart from the Uloboridae and some Liphistiidae and Holarchaeidae, Sparassidae use venom to immobilize prey. They have been known to inflict serious defensive bites on humans.
