Two spider pictures in the article, but neither depict a Fen Raft Spider. Shameful excuse for journalism.

reintroducing wolves and bears is too radical, but fecking giant spiders is okay?
Wolves are for level 5 and bears are level 10. We have to start with the giant spiders first or the level 1 noobs won't stand a chance.
Now go and collect 10 bundles of silk thread. Killing 273 spiders should do it. Drop isn't guaranteed.
If they're calling 25cm the size of a pizza... I'm doubting the rest. Size of an adult male's hand? I'm small, and being generous, the width of my palm is 90cm.
from Wiki:
Adult females can have bodies of slightly over 20mm in length with a span of 70mm including their legs.
That's the size of the largest banana spiders I've seen. In FLORIDA.
Your palm is nearly a meter wide?!
Incredible palm game.
