8. Brazilian Wandering Spider
Often considered to be one of the most venomous spiders in the world, the Brazilian Wandering Spider is a wonder to look at, but a creepy and lethal spider. These creatures can grow up to two inches wide, with their highly toxic venom built up within their bodies just waiting to be delivered via their large fangs. The spider gets it name from its terrible habit to simply show up in highly populated areas for no known scientific reason. Certainly not the best thing to hear when planning a trip to Brazil. These spiders also have a reputation for biting people, making them even more dangerous than they already are. But the spider doesn’t just have one name. Many people know the spider as the Banana Spider or the Armored Spider. While there are antivenoms for this type of spider, it’s certainly not the one you want to be bitten by as the bite has been known to be deadly, especially to children.
