I'm pretty sure that the long-legged spider is facing away from the short-legged one.
The big one doesn't consider the little one a threat. The little one, however, is waiting. If the big one doesn't pay attention for even a fraction of a second, it's over...
You think the jumper can take the wolf?
Yes. The body sizes are the same so the poison from the jumper will be enough to take it down. The legs don't mean much on a fight if the jumper makes the first move.
Oh, wow.
I had no idea jumpers predated on other sliders, and didn't even notice the body size comparison.
Good work.
Fun spider fact: one of the smartest animals in the world is a spider that hunts other spiders. Even spiders fear spiders.
Jumping spiders are amazing!
Beauty. Jumpers (under 1 kilo) are the best spider-bros. Bird-catchers still weird me out.
I really hope they're all under 1 kilo
Lol thank you, I was like one is running away here lol
