Tuatara reptiles have 3 eyes?

Kiwis are cute.

You're lucky no snakes!

We've got them, I found one in our garage!
I've never seen them with such long legs before either, and where we lived while this house was being built, they were all over the place, like LOADS of them. When we go down the driveway, if you ran over one, it made the most awful, loud CRUNCH!

I wonder what they sound like when you fry them up and bite into one? :eek:
 
We have next to nothing interesting over here. Id love to be able to go out and see something good.
We have some tiny scorpions on the dock walls about 4 hours drive away but even they are a boring species.

We don't have scorpions in North Texas, but Central Texas, around San Antonio, is crawling with them.

In my yard and garage, I catch the tarantulas, and release them over in Brinkmann Ranch, a few blocks away. This keeps idiots from freaking out and killing them.

The males come out in August/September to mate, and they are beautiful creatures. The females stay hidden, and are very plain monochromatic tan/brown, if you do manage to see one.

Here is a male in my garage. He's about five inches leg tip to leg tip.
