Caitlin Henderson is crazy about creepy crawlies. Born into a family of invertebrate enthusiasts, she grew an affinity for the spiders that many others avoid at all costs. Henderson has since spun her fascination into the online educational platform, She’s Got Legs. Fusing humour with knowledge, Henderson brings the cute and quirky side of Australia’s spiders to light, encouraging people to understand and protect these misunderstood arachnids. She also co-created the app, Spidentify, which is an interactive identification guide that anyone can use. Follow Henderson as she unearths the weird and wonderful invertebrates of Australia.
