In case Australian animals weren't already weird enough, check these babies out.

They're found in Perth, and are only 4mm or 1/6".

They tiny.

They twerk.

They're cute. Are they poisonous as so many Australian things seem to be?

I believe they're venomous, but not poisonous.

They've still got too many damned legs and eyes.

I believe that is what I meant, although not what I said.

Their bite is supposedly like an ant bite.

Also, yea, it's a male trying to court a female. I wonder if it works? I might try..
