I too do not love the spiders ... and snakes. Alexander von Humboldt were only once in real danger but neither by snakes or spiders according its narrative book : when he was (alone and unarmed - making river measurements) in front of a jaguar... but luckely ... the jaguar was more afraid than hungry 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
