THANKS FOR NOTHING, WORLD.

Nothing, and I mean NOTHING in this world disgusts me more than bugs. Oh wait…

ANYWAYS, back to this nasty spider. If you weren’t scared of trees and their leaves before, prepare to be. A scientist based in China recently discovered a spider that has the CRAZIEST hiding trick of all time: it looks exactly like a dangling leaf.

I’m literally closing my eyes while posting that photo. As much as spiders really do freak me out, it’s incredible how a creature can hide so seamlessly. Even the underside of the spider is a more greenish-yellow looking leaf!

The spider has yet to be described and assigned a species name. I vote Leafy.
