User's notes
It felt like this guy was stalking me. Not sure if it was the same one, but earlier in the rainforest a similar spider jumped onto me, which I quickly encouraged to go back into the forest. A while later, walking down the side of the rainforest I felt something on my hand to find this guy. I quickly flicked it off and it landed on my trolley. After wandering up and down the trolley, I eventually moved it to within reach of the overhanging fronds by the rain forest, where it quickly leapt onto the foliage and headed back into the forest.
