the process that drives a typical spider

457 views

There was a giant spider in a tree behind my house that never seemed to move. For a month I would greet him, Jeff, whenever I left or returned home. Since Jeff never seemed to move, I got to thinkin’. How do spiders work? Do they realize they are spiders and go straight to building a web to chill on, or is that only a response to hunger? After they build a web, what happens if they don’t catch anything? Do they abandon the web to find better real estate, or do they just sit there until they catch something or get caught; or starve to death?

Are you sure Jeff isn’t moving, or just returning to his hidy spot after a busy night putting up a web and catching snacks?
