Oh my gosh! Ick! Tarantulas are not uncommon in my neighborhood so I've gotten used to seeing them now and again and big spiders don't necessarily creep me out, but all those little spiders on it? Ergh. You're a brave soul :)

Yes it was alive, you can't tell but it was about 4" from tip of front legs to tip of back legs, and about 3" or so across from tips of legs. I think those are it's babies on it's body. I am not afraid of spiders, I put a nickel close to it for comparison, LOL it started to run and I jumped! I don't know why it can't hurt me and I was'nt afraid. It was pretty funny, my family was watching me. I just got done telling them not to be afraid and how I was'nt then I jumped...hee hee :-)
