bugs that aren't super intimidating and might be easier to look at for people with phobias. none of them are dangerous to humans!
- orchid mantis (hymenopatus coronatus) - a super small, super gorgeous white mantis with pink tips and wings!
- various local snails around you - not technically bugs 🤓 but still easily approachable for people who want to get more used to these types of creatures! slow and gentle, like hanging out on hands
- fiddler beetle (eupoecila australasiae) - black beetle with yellow or green markings! looks like a fantasy bug :) common in australia!
- bold jumping spider (phidippus audax)- jumping spiders in general are a good gateaway to appreciating spiders more, but i wanted to mention the bold jumper specifically because i think it looks the cutest!...
