Local Sand Trivia
If you’re in the desert in Afghanistan and a scorpion-like spider chases you, don’t worry. It only wants your shade.Â
Many myths surrounding Camel spiders or solifugids are untrue. They don’t eat camels, a bite is not dangerous, and they’re in size to fit in the palm of your hand. True is that they hide in the sand, use comb-like hairs on their legs to shovel sand digging burrows, and yes – they can outrun most humans.Â
So if one happens to run after you, as said, relax it’s only after your shade.
