Spider Captures Snake in Web at Roma
The Queensland Museum director Mr. H. A. Longman reports a young black snake about a foot long found alive in a strong red striped spider web. The snake was bound by dozens of silk threads and bitten in several places. The spider clung to its prey as it and its web were removed from a cowshed. Records of spiders imprisoning snakes are rare and the venom makes this capture dangerous.
