jumping spiders
Jumping spiders are small arachnids belonging to the family Salticidae. They are known for their excellent vision and unique jumping ability, which they use to catch prey and navigate their environment. With over 6,000 species, they can be found in various habitats worldwide, from forests to deserts.
These spiders have a distinctive appearance, often featuring vibrant colors and patterns. Unlike many other spiders, jumping spiders do not spin webs to catch their food; instead, they actively hunt insects and other small creatures. Their keen eyesight allows them to judge distances accurately, making their jumps precise and effective.
