Not us this time... though we do have spiders that catch fish, snakes, lizards and birds

Sure you do, you got the same genus of fishing spiders. In fact, Australia has 14 of them (the US has 3).

I thought golden orb weavers would occasionally trap birds in their webs. I've definitely seen skinks caught in redbacks webs too

Not sure on the snakes and fish tho
