Kugelspinnen, or "ball spiders," are a unique group of arachnids known for their spherical bodies and distinctive hunting methods. They belong to the family Theridiidae and are often found in various habitats, including forests and grasslands. These spiders are typically small and can vary in color, often blending into their surroundings. Kugelspinnen are known for their ability to create irregular webs that resemble tangled masses. They use these webs to capture prey, primarily small insects. Unlike many other spiders, they may also actively hunt rather than solely relying on their webs for trapping food.
