If you’re arachnophobic, you might want to skip this one. A Victoria-area woman’s photo is getting international attention thanks to its rarely-seen eight-legged subject matter.
Langford resident Krysten Leigh snapped the picture on a recent walk with her Pomeranian Chewie. “He was pulling on the leash quite hard, harder than normal.
And when I looked over, I saw this black spider sitting there and I thought it had to be fake because it was so thick — which sounds gross — but it was, so I had to take a double look,” she said. “When I realized it was real, I just pulled my dog back so fast.
I took a picture, because it was pretty cool, and then booked it out of there real quick.” Leigh posted the photo to Facebook, where it has been shared
