Spider eats frog: Nature is scarier than we are
Clearly people are starting to feel bad for all the harm we've caused (and are causing) the planet. Hybrid cars, reusable shopping bags, Harrison Ford ripping out his chest hair -- all signs, in my opinion, that our collective guilt has finally materialized into action for the common good.
And it's about time. I have the sneaking suspicion that nature was about to fight back. You know, call off the peace treaty, send in the big guns, etc. Like this guy, for instance -- a spider that can eat frogs. If the green fad subsides and we slip back into environmental apathy, I picture armies of these freaky-looking arachnids invading major cities, devouring coal power plants and gas guzzlers while generally creeping people out.
So next time you think, "Meh, screw it, I'll toss this leftover food in the garbage and start composting next year" (or whatever your eco-vice happens to be), just picture the environment's eight-legged mercenary gnawing on your arm and consider yourself motivated.
