Deep Sea Frilled Shark
The frilled shark, Chlamydoselachus anguineus, is a prehistoric shark species, the only member of the familyy Chlamydoselachidae in the orderr Hexanchiformes. Superficially, the frilled shark resembles a dark brown or grey eel, but the six gill slits identify it as a shark. The tissue of the gill slits protrudes somewhat, thus inspiring the common name. Its dorsal fin is small, anal fin large, and the caudal fin (tail fin) is highly asymmetric, the dorsal part almost unnoticeable. Its teeth are small, tricuspid, and very sharp.
Loa Loa Worm

It lives in the rainforests of central Africa, and is frequently contracted through fly-bites. Humans are the only known natural incubators for the disease the worm causes, Loiasis, whose symptoms mostly consist of Red Spots, Itching, Soreness, Swelling.

Heteropoda Maxima


It was recently discovered in Laos, and it’s the largest spider in the world. It is a member of the Huntsman Spider family (all of which are frighteningly large,) which are found around the globe – from Japan to Africa, South America to Florida. They’re frequently housed in such exotic places as garages, woodsheds, or firewood piles. When provoked, they will attack. They also travel with incredible speed, and can cling to walls or ceilings just like their smaller counterparts. In Africa, they’re also called Rain Spiders because, when it rains, they seek shelter inside houses and other dwellings.
