Spiders are common in real life, but have you ever seen this slightly eerie human-faced spider? The pattern on the spider in the picture looks like a small old man, two small eyes, and half a circle of mustaches, how to see how terrible, but also some joy.
Because the pattern of this spider looks like a human face, it is called a "human face spider". It is said that the pattern of the human-faced spider is either on the back and some on the abdomen. People have beauty and ugliness, and the pattern of spiders also has beauty and ugliness. Some resemble the face of a beautiful woman, some resemble a terracotta warrior, and the pattern of the spider in the picture looks like a clown.
Why does this spider grow a human face? Some experts believe that this is a means used by spiders to confuse natural enemies such as birds. Strange patterns can cause predators to hesitate, and they take the opportunity to flee. Alas, it is actually forced by life, and the environment forces them to have their own protective colors.
However, the human-faced spider does not live alone, they have a symbiotic companion, called the red-bellied hermit spider, which is the spider in the picture. There are more than 15 red-bellied hermit spiders in the human-faced spider web, and they use the small prey in the human-faced spider web for a living, and when the human-faced spider hunts large food, they will also come forward to share food.
Although many face spiders have "smiling faces" on their patterns, they not only have to avoid the pursuit of predators, but also be responsible for the three meals of more than a dozen red-bellied hermit spiders a day, and the pressure of wanting to live is also very great.
