An invasive spider is crawling it's way across America, and we need your help to research this giant arachnid - the Joro spider! In this video, we'll learn how Joro spiders got here, what impact they're having on local ecosystems, and how you can easily identify them compared to similar native species.

Most wild animals can cause injury if harassed, and I do not recommend attempting to capture any creatures without purpose and practice. The reason that I interact with wildlife is to produce these educational videos, and I am a professional biologist. Also, I always ask permission from a land owner before exploring on their property, and you should do the same. Keep adventuring everywhere, and keep your adventures safe at all times! -Ben Zino "How many are your works, Lord? In wisdom you made them all, the earth is full of your creatures."
