‘It’s All about the Eyes’ – Jumping Spiders & Their Eyesight
Published by:

It's All About The Eyes Artwork and Content by Emily Rack

Whiskered and furry, fluffy mitten pedipalps, flat-faced and round-eyed; most jumping spiders look too cute and cuddly to be like other spiders. In many ways, they are not. Their size is tiny, but their diversity and form are mighty. The intelligence and curiosity see them compared with canines and infant humans. Their superb ability to think and plan makes me consider the brightness and creative consciousness we see in octopuses. And I wonder, could it be the eyesight that fast-tracked them to greatness? A lot of interested scientists think so too.

Watch  Lucas the Jumping Spider.

It will help you manage the following film if you are not too convinced that spiders are as cute as puppies. https://youtu.be/vsH2C042V2c

Jumping Spiders are the darlings of the Arachnid World.

Jumping spiders are the most beautifully decorated and intriguing spiders on the earth. And I am not biased. There is an enormous cult following erupting worldwide, where people are forming surprising bonds with tiny little spiders and sharing their stories globally. Their curious and loveable appearance has made the jumping spider a pop culture sensation. People are keeping these little ones as personal pets all over the world. Those who once had arachnophobia find themselves cured of the affliction by spending time with the harmless and beautiful creatures.

"The Jumping Spider is Genius"
