These jumpers are quite common in the area we stayed:

What would a jungle be without spiders?

Not the best pic, but how many times to you get to see a grasshopper taking a dump in the Amazon?

And a beautiful hopper taking a dump it is Ken. More great shots. The spider is kinda creepy looking

Great shots - the spider look strange too me, and maybe it´s become too lages for the hard external cuticle, and stands in front of a moulting ?

Yeah what would a jungle be without SPIDERS? I still got a big rememberance from a Banana Spider bite on my right thigh. Any ya'all seen them things? They could carry off a small dog, kind'a like that "chicken spider." They don't put up with much either, so don't drop your guard if you happen to get around one.

Cool looking spider though. That grasshopper could use a roll of Scott I think, a guy just can't seen to get a private moment anymore, did ya offer him something to read?
