Peru Finds Spiders in Socks
People at an airport in Peru find many big spiders. There are more than 3,000 spiders. They are in socks in three bags.
Three people want to take the spiders to Germany. People in Europe buy these spiders. One spider costs about €500. All the spiders cost a lot of money.
The police stop the three people. Now they may go to prison. The spiders do not look nice. But they are not dangerous to people. They can hurt people a little, like a bee.
