Ogre-Face / Net-Caster

Spiders in the family Deinopidae, commonly known as Ogre-Faced Spiders and Net-Casting Spiders, use a small web that they hold between their tarsi to catch insects that pass beneath them.

One of the least intimidating spider I’ve ever seen

And stop looking at me with those big ole eyes!

I wonder if they actively select right spots for casting. Will they be like "nah dude this ain't flat enough" and pass it off for another position?

I just watched a few of your shorts. I’ve always hated bugs, especially spiders, but oddly these videos have been pretty calming for my anxiety. I hope to keep watching and maybe even escape my fear of bugs! Thank you!

This is a super unique adaptation! I’ve never seen a spider use its web like a butterfly net, that’s so interesting! Also he looks like a muppet 😂

Can you imagine a human in this system? Chemical warfare, trapdoors, net casting spiders, spitting, camouflage.

If I don't see the whole body their faces bother me the least of all spiders, about the same as the jumping spider. The two large frontal eyes gives the impression of not-spider, though their pedipalps/fangs/chelicerae still cause a fearful and threatened response.

They should be called sweet looking spiders xD

They also go blind every time the sun comes out and have to regrow the light sensitive structures in their eyes

[PrivacyPolice]

I really love their face, it's cute

[Misemono]

Huh, So this is what Spidops was based off of.

[silk]

It looks like a daddy long legs spider.

So this is what SHREK is supposed to look like?

The head-empty looking eyes give me the same vibe as like.. an Arabian Sand Boa. Pretty cool actually, just goofy!
