There are no primates native to AU. The venom did the job it needed to do, which wasn't much because of the strength of the fangs and size of the spider, and just as a side effect it happend to be realy deadly to humans. Kind of like asprin. Asprin does what it needs to do for willow trees and just happens to be a wonderdrug for humans. -- .-')) fauxascii.com ('-. | It's a damn poor mind that ' ..- .:" ) ( ":. -..
