The Giant huntsman spider is huge, but not deadly to humans. Biggest in the world, the Giant Huntsman Spider was just recently discovered in 2001 in a Cave in Laos.
Because of reduced competition from other trees, it tends to thrive in barren soil containing too much sand, gravel, or clay. Growth and development of young trees is rapid, and their longevity can extend to 50-100 years. Siberian Elm is resistant to Dutch Elm disease, which is often fatal to other elms. It is prone to storm damage from wind, snow, and ice (especially the latter), causing breakage of branches and twigs that can litter the ground underneath the tree.
Ages of 200 to 300 years are commonly attained throughout much of the range, and Dallimore and Jackson (1961) estimated the normal lifespan of white spruce at 250 to 300 years. Slow-growing trees in rigorous climates are also capable of great longevity.he bark of mature white spruce is scaly or flaky, gray-brown (Brayshaw 1960) or ash-brown (Harlow and Harrar 1950), but silvery when freshly exposed. Resin blisters are normally lacking, but the Porsild spruce Picea glauca var.
