selbbub78 0 #28 November 10, 2005 QuoteHey, no fair! I voted for the big Black Widow, and she would win if it weren't for your interference. I am betting that the big girl will be smart enough to stay away from the scorpion, and do just waht she has. Build a web and catch the little bastard. But since you guys want YOUR outcome, you just go ahead and keep cheating! ya i concur... you can't interfer with nature.. what is the deal with that. you're going to make that poor big black widow die. let the black widow beat the crap out of the scorpion via nature's way!!!

ccowden 0 #30 November 10, 2005 Well, I am not saying it is "nature," since they have all been put into a plastic tub so that people can be entertained, but if you are truly going to see who wins, then let them atleast have a fair shake. The black widow will be smarter than the scorpion and probably not engage it like the younger one did. Instead, she will make a web, both to protect herself and to catch the scorpion. If you are going to mess around with their God-given defenses, you might as well clip the stinger off the scorpion too, just to make it a more "fair" fight.

Slappie 9 #43 November 10, 2005 I bet the Scorpian won. BUT the spiders egg sacs exploded with a million tiny hungry spiders who pounced on the scorpian and devoured it. Now there all scattered about the DZ making little homes in peoples rigs and all over the packing area. Yup.. I'm scared.

CBRnick 0 #44 November 10, 2005 Holy shit. How big is that black widow? Here in the UK the biggest spiders we get have a body about the size of my fingernail, and nothing thats dangerous for a human. I know black widows can be deadly, but I thought they were quite small. The bigger one in that tank looks to be about the size of a tarantula with a body of about 2 inches. Is it really that big or is it just a trick of perspective? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ReBirth 0 #45 November 10, 2005 Black widows aren't really deadly to humans unless you get bit by a bunch of them and don't go to the hospital for a couple days. But...it's supposedly REALLY freakin' painful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ccowden 0 #46 November 10, 2005 It's ok. Don't be ashamed. I was just making a point. I guess I just don't agree with this whole "battle to the death" scenerio. I mean, I am not in PITA or an activist, and I certaily understand that we as humans have to kill animals to live comfortably. Although I am sure not everyone will agree. But, I just think that killing a spider or a scorpion instantly with a boot is a better choice. It is all about perception. I doubt many people would view putting two stray dogs in a room to battle to the death as "entertainment," but some actually do. So, if you are going to put three live things in a tub and force them to inflict pain and death on each other, atleast let nature use it's weapons.

boinky 0 #48 November 10, 2005 The black widow IS pretty big...at least for one of those. But I don't think it's honestly as big as a tarantula.

selbbub78 0 #49 November 10, 2005 i concur. they weren't bothering you, why let force them to fight each other. it'd be like putting a person in a cage with a hyena or another animal that will tear you to pieces, but if you give that person a gun... ...all the rules change.

ccowden 0 #50 November 10, 2005 I can understand removing them so that they don't bite/sting someone. I can even understand killing them with a boot. But forcing them to attack and kill each other is strictly becuase someone wants to be entertained. Some might call me a hypocrite because I would kill them and still say this forcing them to battle is wrong, and maybe I am, but I just don't like it.
