Spiders have always been synonymous with ugliness and horror, but surely you can't imagine that spiders will grow into a "funny" look, right? Two years ago, on the Internet abroad, a strange spider living in the tropical rainforest of Ecuador suddenly exploded, and it was discovered by an ecological photographer with the full name of the black rabbit spider. Interestingly, when the photo of the black rabbit spider was exposed on the Internet, many people suspected that it was a photo of the post-PS, after all, the network is so developed now, too many photos are post-production, making it difficult to distinguish between true and false, but this weird creature really exists, and the photo is not PS.
The appearance of the black rabbit spider is just like what is seen in the photo, most of their body is mainly yellow, in addition to the eight large legs necessary for spiders, they also have a face like a black puppy and a rabbit, and they also have long ears like rabbits. What kind of secrets are hidden behind this magical rabbit face? What are the rabbit ears on their heads for?
In fact, this strange creature belongs to a rather special biota - the blind spider, which is a strange arthropod with a body length of no more than 5 centimeters, but the legs can be up to 10 centimeters or even longer. Although they look very similar to spiders, but in fact, they are not spiders, they do not even have a web, if you see them in the spider web one day, do not misunderstand, they are just prey that is about to be swallowed by spiders. Blind spiders are actually gentler creatures than spiders, in addition to no toxins and no webs, their defense means are some broken wrists to escape, emit odors or pretend to be dead and other passive skills.
Because of their resemblance to spiders, they are often mistaken for spiders, and even their names are given spiders. The most regrettable thing about this creature that has existed since the time of the dinosaurs is that it is not "favored" by scientists, and there are not many biologists who are willing to study them in depth, so why the black rabbit spider looks so weird, and what the rabbit ears on their heads are used for, biologists have not yet found a positive answer, and can only infer that they may make their body size look larger to scare off predators.
Speaking of which, some people may wonder why this creature is so cute that people can't sleep. This brings us to their way of life. Blind spiders because of the individual combat effectiveness is not strong, so there are characteristics of group life, in the cold weather can be hugged to maintain the temperature, so there will often be hundreds of blind spiders will gather together, just like a clump of black hair, if people pass by accidentally step on or scare them, it will be like watching the horror movie in the picture, hundreds of blind spiders will fall out of the nest, so that passers-by creepy scared nightmares at night.
