Four-Legged Spider Enjoys TLC From Rescuer

Freddy the four-legged spider seemed to enjoy some TLC from his rescuer, a Queensland-based entomology enthusiast, as seen in footage posted on July 13.

Lisa Van Kula Donovan wrote that she “finally couldn’t help myself. I pat Freddy.”

Huntsman spiders could usually regenerate lost limbs during moulting periods but Freddy, who the uploader found on her porch in April, was probably too old to moult again. Credit: Lisa Van Kula Donovan via Storyful
