اونٹ مکڑی / صحرائی مکڑی
کیمل اسپائڈر عرف سن اسپائڈر
مصر کے صحراؤں میں پائی جاتی ہے
اس کی 8 انچ تک لمبائی ہوتی ہے ۔
دوڑنے کی حد رفتار 10میل فی گھنٹہ تک جو اس جیسے چھوٹے مکوڑے کے لیے بہت ہے ۔
یہ انسان کومعمولی سا کاٹ بھی سکتی ہے مگر موقع ملنے پر بلا وجہ نہيں ۔

اس کے متعلق کہانیاں سننے میں آتی تھیں خلیج جنگ 1990-91 کے دوران لیکن وہ سب محض کہانیاں ہی تھیں جیسے یہ
While working for Al Salam Aircraft company in Riyadh, 2002- 2003 (I left after the Jadawel Compound bombing) we had many run ins with camel spiders in the hanger areas and out in the aircraft run areas. I admit that my first encounter with one scared the hell out of me but it got to be routine. Some were relatively small, others fairly large, all were aggressive like nothing I have ever seen. They would come in, mostly on night shift, walking right up the middle of the hanger. We couldn't take a broom, or anything else, and try to push them out as they would turn aggressive and attack whatever we would use so we finally started keeping coffee cans, and other containers, around and just trapped them and took them out to the fence line and let them go. Of course some did not want to be trapped and we would then introduce them to the "Smash factor" but what a mess that made.

Luckily we had no one bitten, American or Saudi, but there were the usual close calls since we had to start checking everything we opened, carefully, for any intruders. I hope I never run into one of those nasty little buggers again. They must be what B sci-fi movie producers had in mind when they were making all those movies in the 50's

.اور اب انٹرنیٹ پر اس قسم کے قصے پھیلے ہوئے ہیں کہ کیمل اسپائڈر نے فلاں سوئے ہوئے آدمی یا امریکی فوجی کو کاٹ لیا اور چبا لیا وغیرہ وغیرہ
