Scientists in the United States say they have found a new family of spiders in the caves of California and Oregon - the first such discovery in North America for more than 140 years. Spanning more than seven centimetres with its legs extended, the spider has pointed, fearsome claws. Curator, Charles Griswold, describes the fearsome discovery.
