Last Autumn Alice and Florence caught a wolf spider in their house, and they sent in the question: why do spiders have eight eyes, and we only have two?
It s a great question, but not one we could answer by ourselves. So we called in arachnid expert Collie Ellis, a researcher who not only studies these creatures, he also houses them too. I have hundreds of spiders and tarantulas and scorpions and invertebrates. I have thousands of cockroaches, different species of cockroaches. And then when you’re getting into frogs, in my garden alone, I don’t know, frogs and newts, native species, I have hundreds and hundreds of them that are basically living wild in my estate, says Collie, when we ask him how many pets he has living with him. He also has snakes, a skink, toads…the list goes on!
