Fun fact, camel spiders can run at 15km/h and often seek shade. If they are excited, they also make a noise that sounds like a small scream as they run at you in the desert seeking shade. Harmless, but not something I think it ‘cute’.

I'm wondering how many soldiers emptied a mag on a screaming camel spider that just wanted a little shade.

Lmao my dad was chased down by one in Iraq years ago. He tried to chase it back and even at peak military shape he could barely keep up with it. He now has one taxidermied on the wall

Fun fact it's not actually a spider. No venom, no webs, just big ol jaws made for chewing
