Emma Teni
Emma Teni is a spider keeper at the Australian Reptile Park, where she specializes in the care of spiders, particularly the Sydney funnel-web, known as the world's deadliest spider. Recently, she has been in the news due to a spike in spider activity expected in Sydney as warm, wet autumn conditions set in, which raises concerns about the availability of funnel-webs for antivenom production. Teni emphasized the urgency of maintaining a healthy population of these spiders for the park's antivenom program, which is currently at risk due to a low number of spider donations.
