Jumping Spiders Part 1, with Bob, the spider hunter
The Jumping Spider is for me one of the most fascinating of all spiders! They have vision that comes close to ours. They can jump 40-50 times their own body length and they do it without leg muscles! They do not spin a web to catch their prey but hunt on the prowl like a lion that pounces on it's stalked meal. Their colors and body shapes and sizes make this spider a very unique species. Join me in the hunt for the jumping spider that can be found around your home. Be sure and view Part 2 on my video of jumping spiders as you will see some great clips of males confronting each other!
