What has 112 legs...?

Nathan got the boys a clear bucket with a clear lid so that they could have a giant "bug jar". It does NOT come in the house, but occasionally stays on our veranda. Well, the snake from a few months, their first inhabitant of the bug bucket, ago slithered away. Since then we've had a chameleon that crawled away and a frog that they eventually let go. This one beats it all. One afternoon, the boys were collecting spiders. YUCK! In a quick glance, I counted 14 in this picture. YUCK! I'm amazed that they got this many and I'm frightened that there are so many big spiders living around the outside (hopefully not inside) of my house. And then the brave souls that would hold the spiders...can you see in this picture of Kamatu how long those spider legs are? Gives me the creeps.
