Correct size, real insect. Perfect for teaching
I wasn't expecting a whole lot from this, I thought it was going to be a fake plastic spider inside, but it is definitely the real thing. I'm surprised at how easily my friends are able to handle it without flinching (I got the tarantula); they would normally have a panic attack at the sight of even a small spider. I guess they realise that it's not going to be able to get out of the mould and eat them. I'm using it as a paperweight on my desk, always a talking point :)
