jumping spider is a large family, with more than 6,000 species in the world, and most people have seen them. Among small spiders, the easiest way to tell whether it is a jumping spider is by the shape of its eyes - all jumping spiders have four pairs of eyes, and the front and middle two pairs are particularly large.

Some people think the big eyes of jumping spiders are cute, but if you think of the big eyes in the middle as nostrils... the fun will be even higher...

These tiny eyes Guys are in our homes and in the cabs of our cars. Even when they run at full strength, they're usually not that fast, not that noticeable, and not scary.

Whether you are afraid of spiders or not, you should take good care of the little jumping spiders at home

First of all, jumping spiders will not build webs in your home.

In addition to using silk as a safety line when jumping, if your air conditioner is turned on too cool, jumping spiders will build a "little tent" with silk in a corner that you never clean, and sleep there.

Other times, they will eliminate flies, mosquitoes and other nasty bugs in your home.

Jumping spiders do not necessarily travel in a straight line when approaching prey. They may take a circuitous route, sometimes even passing through a blind spot where the prey cannot be seen - this kind of hunting behavior is obviously only seen in "high-end games" -Usually only mammals. It is extremely rare and incredible for an organism with such a small brain.

If you are patient enough or lucky enough to see them hunting, you will definitely be amazed. Jumping spiders, which usually don't walk very fast, can jump very quickly, especially when hunting, jumping and swooping like a tiger!

After biting its prey, jumping spiders inject fast-acting venom from their fangs, leaving the victim little time to react. They ambush prey that is often larger than themselves.

Don’t worry, the venom is specifically used to subdue prey insects. They almost never bite humans. Even the skin of young children and their small teeth will not cause any harm. The bites will not cause any symptoms and are no more uncomfortable than mosquito bites.

obviously doesn't run fast, why can it jump so fast?

Comparing it with another "jumping specialist" species, grasshopper , you will find that jumping spiders do not have such muscular legs.

The jumping spider's "tiger pounce" does not rely on muscles, but through the perfectly evolved internal hydraulic system - changing the pressure of body fluid (hemelymph) to extend the legs and achieve jumping. Most jumping spiders can jump several times their body length, which shows that they all have a powerful and big heart!

Courtship Dance

Female jumping spiders are absolutely visual when it comes to finding a partner.

Females are completely dominant and are larger than males. Male jumping spiders have feathery, colorful hair (especially noticeable in peacock spiders ), fringes on their front legs, and other bizarre modifications. These traits are used in a courtship "dance" to display oneself to the female.

In addition to displaying color, jumping spiders perform complex sliding, vibrating, or zigzag movements to attract female spiders. Excellent dance moves suggest masculine energy, creativity and elegance.

The big winner is the male who can improvise complex dance moves before mating, and the more complex the dance, the more likely the spider is to find love, according to new research.

The ability of male jumping spiders to complete complex movements has nothing to do with size or strength. Female jumping spiders do not look for the largest and strongest male, but instead look for an object with the best athletic ability and coordination.

Researchers conducted an experiment. Among 44 male jumping spider candidates, 7 were considered acceptable by female subjects, and they had distinctive and more complex dances.

Many studies have shown that many animal species prefer novelty to some extent.

The same is true for us. Freshness and curiosity are not only everything, but also one of the important sources of motivation in life.Don’t stick to the “common sense” in your mind, be brave, logical, and more rigorous in approaching all new things.

hopes that ourselves and the next generation will be brave enough to innovate and go their own way.
