Riley was unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of a Funnel Web spider bite, but thanks to our anti-venom program he survived. We got him out here as soon as we could to show him around and he thanked the keepers for saving his life! | Australian Reptile Park | Facebook

Catching the world's deadliest spider is easier than you think... 🕷️ Every funnel web you catch for us, contributes to creating lifesaving anti-venom. We know it's a bit scary, but they can't climb smooth surfaces and move very slowly PLUS you could literally save lives!! 💕 #funnelweb #funnelwebspider #spiders | Australian Reptile Park

Our very own resident 🕷️Spider-Man🕷️ has broken his own record for the most venom extracted from a single funnel-web spider! Thanks to Jake, this venom will be used to create lifesaving antivenom 🤍 | Australian Reptile Park

Each drop is deadly and keepers work incredibly hard to milk each spider carefully. Since the introduction of the anti-venom program in 1981, not one single person has died from being bitten by a Funnel-web spider. | Australian Reptile Park | Facebook
