Today we are talking to Dr. Linda Rayor from the Entemology Department at Cornell University who has spent most of her career studying Social Behavior in spiders like the Huntsman Spider. She also studies communal tarantula species like the Monocentropus balfouri, Neoholothele incei and Hysterocrates gigas. We even discuss Amblypygi like the Tailless Whip Scorpion and how someone becomes an arachnologist!
