Unkbuut

The Unkbuuts are a species of giant sapient herbivorous spiders with (apparently) vertebrate jaws that originated from the Aladdin TV series, but now exists in real life Earth worldwide. Their digestive systems have evolved to deal with eating vegetation, much like what happened to the ancestors of native real life Bagheera kiplingi, a Central American jumping spider which is also largely herbivorous. The reason for their larger size than any native real life spiders is unknown, it may have been due to magic from where these spiders originated from. They can carry cocoons on their backs which are sometimes mistaken to hold hostages when it only holds potatoes and other crops the Unkbuut farmed. They are caring, friendly, good-natured creatures. They are very intelligent almost to a human level degree, understanding human speech and that (in the Aladdin series) they were the cause of the earthquake, offering to help. They are also farmers and vegetarians.
