Me handling a Huntsman spider (HD)
Posted by: Rowlph77
Video duration: 56 seconds
This is me taking a 'fair-sized' Huntsman outside for a stroll (while holding the camera in one hand, then having to swap it over into the other hand whenever she got too far up my arm!) Oh, and er, trying not to make any sudden movements. I decided to put her in the letterbox.

Pet python eating a mouse (HD)
Posted by: Rowlph77
Video duration: 495 seconds
A juvenile Murray-Darling Python from Australia, capturing, constricting and swallowing a hopper (dead baby mouse).
The python is 70 cm long. Before eating the mouse it weighed 42 grams. Two days later after digesting the 9 g mouse, it weighed 50 g.
I do not own the rights to the music, which is a remix of 'Dead Eyes Opened' by Severed Heads.

Annoying the Crayfish at Hokitika
Posted by: Rowlph77
Video duration: 45 seconds
While visiting the excellent National Kiwi Centre in Hokitika, South Island, New Zealand recently, we noticed that a crayfish got particularly 'attentive' when I walked past. It turned out to be my orange shirt that was attracting its attention, so of course I couldn't resist a certain amount of, er, teasing it, shall we say.

Australian Red Bull Ant - actually a Bulldog Ant
Posted by: Rowlph77
Video duration: 36 seconds
A huge bull ant I found outside. Thanks to Karl for identifying the species as Myrmecia brevinoda, which actually makes it a "Bulldog Ant" rather than a "Red Bull Ant" so I have changed the title of the video. (The two species are very similar, apart from colouration.)
This is an average sized worker, about 27mm long, not including jaws and legs. Queens can grow up to around 50mm long.
