the Sydney funnel-web spider has the reputation of being the most venomous spider in the world
it's bite is considered medically significant and can be lethal to primates and insects
but funnily enough, mammals other than primates are relatively immune to their bites
us being vulnerable to this spider's venom is considered to be a mere genetic coincidence
Ever since they developed an anti-venom in 1980s, there has been no recorded human deaths by the Sydney funnel-web spider
