(The first few frames of this episode may look "weird" because it has been edited to remove the intro. Sorry for any confusion!)
I love the way they look at things or when they look up at you when near one. It's like they're thinking like "hm what's this thing?"
EVEN if you
I spent about 20 minutes talking to a Great Jumper. It was so cute, when I was talking, it looked right at me and walked closer to me and sat there as if it was listening to me, when I stopped talking it would turn around and walk away. When I spoke again, it came right back lol.
@@allisonhunter1063 they are so sensitive that the hairs on their legs can sense speech!
They are very intelligent and curious creatures
Why nobody has bred these for size and sold them as pets is beyond me.
my dad is TERRIFIED of spiders and one time a brought flowers from the neighbor into the house and a jumping spider was on one of the flowers, my dad flipped out and told me to take it outside but i told him that it was friendly, i convinced him to look and it waved to him, he now loves them.
well my mom hates them so much she won’t even go near them at all and makes me,her mom and big brother kill them🙄
@@briannakelly2833hy do y’all kill them? They are harmless and eat all these nasty flying insects.🙄
@@DennysmarMartina-cb1xq well my grandma is the one kills them because I stay away from them like the scaredy-cat I am
@@briannakelly2833 That’s like me being scared of a puppy and kill it cuz I’m too ignorant.
@@DennysmarMartina-cb1xq why would you kill a dog!?
i just love how they will look right at you're face when you inspect them and will sometimes even jump on to you're finger or hand to get a better look at you.
They are very active predators and, like most active predators, are fairly curious and fearless. They're probably thinking, "Hm, is this food? No? Ok then."
Spider:Oh hello human how are you doing today?
That’s what I think their saying when they look at me or get on my hand very sociable animals.
@@johnnycashfan3398I’ve captured a gold jumping spider whom is beautiful, in a cup and I feed her and give her water. She’s so cute 😅😅😅
@@Coopdog0108 Yeah they really do help people cure their phobias of them how can you find these adorable little critters scary? Their just cute and full of personality for such little spiders
@@johnnycashfan3398 absolutely
I got one at home and I just let him crawl around everywhere. Cute little fella
That's adorable!
They look so inquisitive. Like theyre pondering important spider stuff
I had a jumping spider that lived inside my cars mirror. Just found him one day while I was eating lunch at work, he didn’t want to leave so I actually let him stay and became a pet in some way. There’s a lot of bugs near my job so I fed him those rolly Polly bugs that wander around. He sadly passed away a few years ago, I found his corpse when I turned my mirror outward and found him behind the mechanism. For those wondering what his name was, it was Henry.
Rip little buddy
Cool.
Awww, that's so sweet and sad at the same time. 😢
it's amazing that when jumping spiders move their eyes, they move their frickin *retinas* because their lenses are stationary!
1:30 yeah, you can see that here!!! i love these little buddies
Other spiders: YOU DARE LOOK AT ME YOU MUST D I E
Jumping spiders: want to be friends?
F R E N 👁👁👁👄👁👁👁
you are friend now we be having soft tacos later
The Friendly neigborhood Jumping Spider
Jumping spider scientist here! Great job on the video! It was overall quite accurate. A note on longevity - Ive had a few animals make it to ~2 years old, but ~1 year is more common.
Thanks so much for the feedback!
Clarification - 1-2 years is the lifespan in captivity. Their physical ability drops off quite a bit at that point, so I'd suspect that they have shorter lives in the wild due to predation.
Does any of them use venom?
Spiderday Night LIVE YOUR USER 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@michaelp.4890 Hi Michael. I'm a year late to see your comment, but I hope you'll see it at some point. All jumping spiders are venomous, but not poisonous. Venom is injected through fangs or a stinger, while poison requires the animal to be consumed. :)
Just the way they tilt their heads when they see something new...
✨ADORABLE✨
Cool fact. A lot of people who have arachnophobia actually aren't afraid of jumping spiders. Myself included. I believe it's because of the way they move and how it just doesn't really trigger a spider in my head if I see one on the wall or something.
I was wondering about that...as terrified as I am of spiders I think these ones are so cute
@@MaLuDramatic Same. Most spiders look horrifying but jumping spiders look like chibi versions of tarantula lol
Same here. I hate every other type of spider. Jumpers are very different. I love them.
Some people can be scared because they move that fast
I reckon it’s not just because of that, but also because of their huge front eyes, comparatively short legs, and furry mouthparts that look like a short prehensile mustache.
I remember back then i was washing my dish, seeing a jumping spider going towards me. And i was terrified because i did not know jumping spider before. They are so cute!
Glad you think they're cute now and hopefully less terrifying
as pets, I've heard they require almost no cleaning except cleaning the anchor lines from their terrain and may actually interact with you
There so adorable ! Gosh they're cute.
I agree
It feels great watching one crawl around your arm
My personal favorite spooder! So cute, so docile, and amazing hunters! I think it's fair to say they are the house cat of the arachnid world.
They are just soooo cute and adorable! I love to make friends with them...
Aww that's sweet 💜
Just by coincidence, I saw an ant-shaped jumping spider this morning for the first time in my life - and then this video popped up. Internet is scary.
They ~~know~~
1:31 Kaweyes*
I've found the one that mimics an ant last August. I seriously thought it was just the common trapjaw ant with it's jaws closed. After I let it climbed my fingers & got a closer look, it was a jumping spider!
Have a few around the place and it still makes me chuckle every time they turn-on "cat mode" and wiggle before jumping. Named one of them TJ because he does this weird triple jump; two little skips and then the attack. Size of my little finger nail but I still flinch when they jump yet have no issue with spiders crawling on me in general..
They are just like cats. Cute little vicious hunter predators.
They are the cutest!!!! Always super chill spiders
lol I had a typo in my suggestion. daring jumping spider is what I meant. those little guys have such a personality!
Oooh! I gotcha! We'll have to look into them for a future episode. =)
The only issue I have is getting to attached and barely living to be a year old .......I don't know if I can do it.I had caught 8 loast year which either there live like families or a sack that was near by opened or what but the 8 were all within September here in Tn. just south west of JNashville.With their eyes being so polarizing I had to get a big thin cooking container and hold over and push it towards the edge and s/he would get on,the only way for me to catch since I am wheelchair bound but can stand,and I would lay the tuperwear close to me so it would see me and i would occasionaly pick it up look inside and did this to about an hour long then I would go outside open and they do thee one thing no bug or insect invertebre would do which is run,he climbed all over me tilting his head like a dog and I even brought one in a store while it chilled on my hand knowing I wouldn't hurt him or her.I absolutely love these wonderful creatures....and also,I caught a baby tan less than a month ago.that was a hyper lil guy.I still am deathly afraid of insects but I give 100% to try to catch and release.My windows always get Weavers around keeping lil annoying bugs out of the house.I do get a lil sad when I'm trying to save em they play dead which means they are in a state of fear...
I have 6 of them as pets. They're super easy to keep and fascinating to watch
That's cute!
1:52 Dayum gorl look at those lashes!
Aww so cute and fuzzy 😍
Amiright?
I love how big their eyes are ❤❤
PEOPLE THAT LIKE CUTE JUMPING SPIDERS ARE THEMSELVES CUTE...IT MUST BE A DECADENT WORLD PHENOMENON
Old World Tarantula: (hisses)
New World Tarantula: (kick hairs)
Jumping Spider: (super Mario noises)
Omg 😱 who would of thought with a phobia of arachnids I would think this is a cute spider.
It is very well known that jumping spiders help people with arachnophobia get over that fear like used to the petrified of spiders now I'm not thanks to theses cute little ones
I saw a jumping spider in my house today. It just looked at me and continued what it was doing.
That's so cool!
The cutie who inspired Lucas the jumping spider 🥰
Jumping spiders must be the only creature able to somehow still look cute and adorable, staring with big wide innocent eyes, while they suck the life out of their meal. “What me a bloodthirsty killer? Nah that must be Ted you are thinking of….munch munch slurp slurp.”
I just filmed one doing it's thing for like 15 minutes trying to film it jumping, like he didn't wanna jump on purpose in front of the camera 😂, they are absolutely adorable
Very few animals get shafted quite like the male spider, not only do they live a fraction of the time as their female counter parts as well as being smaller, but she might also eat him too😂
Here because I felt something on my leg and looked down to see one of these little angels looking back at me. I popped him outside on the windowsill
What an adorable surprise!
Hi
Currently rooming with one whose made its home base within my snake plant…wasn’t sure how to handle it until this video as well as the comments so thank you all. Very helpful indeed
I had a jumping spider go with me on a bicycle ride , on my haddle bars.
It's funny how half of them are looking at the camera like "wtf is that?"
It's more like a "Oooo" to me.
jumping spiders are cute and they always look at you, with those big bugged puppy dog. eyes!
3:15 .... that's annoying to know .... why did a spider go to space 😂😂😂
They are so gorgeous. Iove jumping spiders.
I have one living in my bathroom and it hunts down most bugs that make it in
I just caught one on my kitchen window. It didn't seem bothered at all. It was scurrying on the glass like " How curious. 🤔What is this invisible force field i suddenly find myself in? 🤨 Oh. I seem to have been captured by a giant bee." (Cos i was wearing a black and yellow striped shirt. Lol)
I love it! I can't wait to add more jumping spider content to my own channel
So ain’t nobody gonna say something about the ending, did the spider really go to space?and back?
She did! Her name was Nefertiti. Here's a link to an article about her: www.rt.com/news/space-jumping-spider-dies-311/
Thanks for watching!
Love these little guys.
I'm still asking why these guys have only 3.6k subscribers... amazing work! keep it up!
Thanks i needed this information
Glad it was helpful! =)
NOT THE BABY EYES-
Jumping spiders are cool asl. There’s one that lives in the picnic table I sit at by my job. When it went to move by me on the table,I could see it lift its upper body to look up at me with those big eyes lol I think it got used to my presence because a few mins later,it hopped up on my arm and was exploring around
I love Jumping Spiders 🕷 1:26 1:27 1:29 1:29 1:29 1:29 1:30 1:30
These guys are so smart and cute !
1:38 “whatchu lookin at?”
I’m normally terrified of spiders. Working on overcoming that since I try to save them on my job site lol. But these little guys I have always thought were so cute. But I recently read somewhere and (please somebody chime in if they have heard the same or different)thing that spiders actually DONT have good eyesight, which I thought was hilarious being that they have enough eyes
Cute lil devils aren't they? I never toss em outside anymore. I like having them around.
Has anybody been too a jumping spider wedding.
These are the only spiders I will ever want to cuddle
Tarantulas are pretty okay, too. 😉
@@AnimalFactFiles only because they are furry, if you remove the fur they will look really creepy.
What type of of jumping spider is that at 2:06?
Your cat is called Chester? That's the name of the cat from Star Trek: Deep Space Nine too :D
They are so cute!
i found a baby outside and he jumped right in my enclosure when i held it up to him :]
Wow , jumping spider , crazz is on.
Used to be afraid of all spiders. Then I grew to love the little animals.
where do you get them at
I hate spiders with a passion. But I for some reason adore Jumping Spiders
Wow! Great vid!
Thanks so much!
Spooderboi is the homie. Curious lil fellas.
Edit: I never knew spooderboi went to space. Thats wild.
those eyelashes for each eye lol
I found what I think is a jumping spider.. It has a really skinny abdomen and I'm trying to get it to eat. Any suggestions?
I've never kept spiders, so I'm not much help here. I think Snake Discovery has a video on this, though I haven't personally watched it. Might be a good place to start: th-cam.com/video/GjKg2gbbVpw/w-d-xo.html
Good luck!
Lower Ohio river Valley we have several species of jumping spiders and they are a Hoot to watch, even got my no bug wife involved, seeing one first time you'll marvel at their athletic ability and cunning, observe them long enough & you start feeling there's an air of intelligence to them. There's a extra small species that hangs around the house that's even more interesting to watch, any bug even slightly larger than itself is fair game. watching one stalking down a fly is trippy.
They are the only spiders that can hear past 3 cm 🙉 all other spiders only use vibration. Very good pets
01:31 amazing footage 😮😎
Mmm…. I’ve seen a few before but never in my backyard or anything close…. I want some on my fruit trees…. They’re adorable and I could spend hours staring at them…
They're cute. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
I lived in Alaska and "they" swore no spiders. BS, none native but I found small spiders in the barracks...in Winter. 😢
Any one ever played tag with one🤣🤣🤣 i remember seeing one just looking at me so i booped him then the lil fucker chased me, jumped at me, booped me back and sat there looking at me again so i did it again🤣 we did this for like 15 mins lol
I literally collect jumping spiders and release them into my home. It took care of my pest problem.
I work at a museum and I’ve seen 3 jumping spiders within 3 months there. And by mistake I killed one not knowing what it was. I’m mad I did tht bc I had to kill a big reddish brown spider right before we closed. But I heard that jumping spiders can kill poisons spiders?
It's been confirmed jumping spiders are good 👂✔️
Okay I put it to you like this this is a long story I am a commercial roofer I see jumping spiders all the time maybe about 8 years ago I saw the owner of a roofing company save a spider 🕷️ from getting crutch and that made me realize the things I was doing when it came down to insects they play a major role on this planet. Literally I was repairing a roof painting down silicone on a air duct unit he was walking towards the areas I painted there was only one way out it was towards me he almost crawled in the silicone until I told him 🕷️ to stop you're going to get stuck dude you're going to have to walk towards me don't worry I won't kill you that's what I said to 🕷️ and I'm not surprised from the jumping spiders action he heard me he started walking towards me he spent a web down from the air duct unit by me but literally he turned around and looked at me and took my advice so for those people who think they're just insignificant insects you are surely wrong!!!! .👂🕷️👂😏😎
And don't get me started on praying mantises neither very intelligent creatures
Usually fing these Lil guys in my cars door jams. Usually just move them to under or around the house.
I know all the facts in the video , but i like it . (and spiders are all cute)
jumping spider, nah....
SpiderCat , yes !
No joke I was actually wondering if they have been to space before then my question was answered!
We know they are friendly. We all know Lucas ;)
SO CUTE 😭😭🥺
They are very intelligent
I have a jumping spider pet named Mary.
That's a great spider name! 💚
I have a big black jumping spider living in my house my wife hates him but has learned to get along. I tap my finger and the little guy run up to say hello. Or more likely he thinks it’s food. He is not afraid of me and seems to like me living in his house. Luca
Wow Awesome That you use my suggestions. Do you guys have a paytrion or something? I’d like to show a little love
Thanks so much for the support! As of right now we don't have any donation system in place, but if we decide to make one in the future we'll be sure to post a video about it. =) Either way, just you enjoying and watching the videos is amazing.
@@AnimalFactFiles well ok for now I'll just like and share with my nature friends. and you can bet your sweet bippy I'm already subed. lol
Jumping spider Mama's lol
I think we found a spider that can make arachnafobic say “aaaaw”
Love this idea
I’m about to cry 😭
Can you please do sugar gliders!!!! :D
This one is actually already in the works, so you should be seeing it within the next couple of weeks! Be on the lookout. ;)
@Chava Feldman Official here's the sugar glider episode: th-cam.com/video/6etjl6J0aaU/w-d-xo.html
How long do they live
1-3 years
I wonder if they ever jump first lay thread later for the thrill of it just like spider man
I certainly hope so 😻
Jumping Spider Milk is great on your Coco Pops. Fucking expensive though. It's like the saffron of milk.
