What a cute little bug. 30 legs. Wow. I don't think you have anything to worry about. It is not a scorpion, black widow, brown recluse, diamond back rattler, water moccasin, hippopotamus, great white shark or any of the other well known "killers".
If it was so bad there would be more common info out there. BTW, what is that little feller, anyway.

Was the source that told you theyre deadly credible? From what you say theres alot more people saying the other, which would point to me that your initial source was false. Perhaps a friend who tried to freak you out?

Hey Bear,
I would've answered sooner, but I figured that If that thing was on you then you probably were someplace safe.
Now if that thing was bigger, more legs and hard and black, I would worry, but then you wouldn't be able to contact us.
The big black ones are usually in the middle of the desert, like the Sahara.
Can't find them in civilization unless it is in the movies...
Glad to hear you're still with us!

It depends upon where you live. The ones in the U.S are not deadly.

Depend but even if it is a poisonous one you probably will not die.Maybe you should go to the doctor and check on it.
