I saw my first Camel Spider today. According to legend, their bodies are a big as softballs, they are very aggressive and they can jump high enough to bite the belly of a camel.
The truth is they have a body the size of a ping pong ball. I haven’t seen one jump, but they will “chase” you (actually, they chase your shadow to stay in the shade.) When they run, they raise their front legs over their head and look like one of the bugs from Starship Troopers.
Oh, by the way, they don’t taste like chicken.
