The Big Spider approaching Henrietta
The Big Spider[1] is a spider who lives in the African jungle.
Physical Appearance
The big spider resembles a red black tail crab spider with a hairy abdomen. He has a slightly darker red head and legs.
Personality
The big spider shows a rather hostile personality to any creature whom he mistakes as food (specifically the size of a fly). This could be a misunderstanding, but the spider was very hungry and eager to see prey trapped in his home. Like most spiders, the big spider uses a large spider web as his home. However, he is shown to be sensitive of creatures bigger than his size such as when Giggles and Tickles pretend to be an arachnid-like monster bigger than his size, causing him to react in fear. As a result, the spider retreated from the monkeys in fear, followed by Giggles and Tickles freeing Henrietta who was tied up in the webbing.

Trivia
- He is the first and only arthropod to speak.

- Spiders in real life are not actually hostile towards their enemies, unlike the spider that tried to eat Henrietta. They only attack their enemies by biting them as a defense mechanism when they are provoked.
