Now featured on The Hunt (from Planet Earth series) is RC's greatest nightmare

"Portia is a genus of jumping spider that feeds on other spiders (i.e., they are araneophagic or arachnophagic). They are remarkable for their intelligent hunting behaviour, which suggests that they are capable of learning and problem solving, traits normally attributed to much larger animals"

They can leap 50x their own body size (which, mind you, is pretty small). But: still.

These things are freaking *smart*.
