Isn’t it wonderful to see spiders? The truth is, they’re usually bloody frightening. However, if you look more in-depth, you may discover that picture is incorrect. Spiders have paws as close as their toes are to where their feet are!
A spider’s paw is referred to as a tarsus, one of eight components that make up a relatively complex leg. Spiders, like cats and dogs, have claws attached to their paws, but they also use their legs to listen to and acknowledge scents in the air.
Around 900 species of tarantulas have furry paws. Some of them have leg spans as big as a dinner plate, up to 30cm. Approximately 600,000 strands of fur protrude from the claw tufts on the paws. It is this density of hair that allows the spider to travel on vertical surfaces as well as on glass. In technical terms, spiders don’t have paws, but let’s not ruin this cute notion of spiders having paws. The only thing that makes this stuff appealing is that it looks adorable! The next time I freak out in my kitchen because of a spider, I hope to remember this. Your emotions for these arachnids will suddenly change when you see our choice of cute spider paws.
