"A group of rare jumping spiders are delaying the construction of a new \u00C2\u00A32 billion theme park. The project in Swanscombe Peninsula, Kent is backed by Paramount and aims to be the third-largest theme park in the world.  It will be twice the size of the Olympic Park and will create 27,000 new jobs. It will feature Europe&amp;#039;s largest indoor water park and hopes to be up and running by 2019. However, plans have been halted because environmentalists have found rare jumping spiders at the site, reports The Mirror. The spiders are on the UK priority species list since they are only found in one other place in the country, West Thurrock Marshes in Essex. The species like the soil found at the site because it is particularly alkaline due to previous industrial use. Developers London Resort Company Holdings are insisting that they will find a temporary home for the spiders. Project director Tony Sefton said: &amp;quot;We&amp;#039;re doing a good thing. We will look after the spiders.&amp;quot; &amp;gt; Tarantula &amp;#039;size of human face&amp;#039; discovered in Sri Lanka - picture &amp;gt; 200 live tarantulas found in suitcase at Dutch airport "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
