In this episode of Life’s Little Mysteries, we’ll take a closer look at the mysterious arachnids with more legs and eyes than you can count on one hand: spiders.
How long have spiders been around? How many different species of spiders are there and which species are the most dangerous to humans? Listen to Life’s Little Mysteries 25: Mysterious Spiders to find out!
We will also hear about small, colorful peacock spiders, and how the males’ elaborate courtship dances protect them from being eaten … not by predators, but by much larger females.
