I think there is someone around pulling legs off spiders at my place. I have found another unfortunate. This time a Huntsman Spider.

Nice picture (of a creepy thing)...

If it were a human doing the leg thing, wouldn't it just be a total squash and not pulling off legs? I'm wondering if it's another critter (or bird)...

My daughter thinks it's a bird
It is likely that it was a predator of some description
