The Forgotten Venomous Spiders of the US

Did you know there were more venomous spiders in the US than just black widows and brown recluses? In this video we take a look at 10 different spiders packing deadly venomous secrets, and one bonus spider that uses one of the world's most dangerous toxins in a unique and novel way. My name is Spencer Hoffman. I’m a biologist and filmmaker from North Carolina and my goal is to find the most extreme life forms in the world—from the strangest, to the deadliest— and capture the stories of how their insane lifestyles help them to survive on our Weird Planet.
