World's Cutest Jumping Spider On My Finger

Is the Platycryptus Undatus "saying something nice" with her pedipalp sign language? I know most people don't think of spiders as being cute, but this little girl sure has the ability to change some people's mind and have them say something nice about spiders. Jumpers are very curious spiders, and can be a treat to film and handle. I also looked up this dougie dance people keep mentioning in the comments, it does resemble it when she wipes her eyes. Now my spider can teach you how to dougie. And for those who got here thru another video about some girl with a spider living under her skin, this spider will not live under your skin. Don't know the deal with the firefighter exam, maybe due to the word fire in some of the comments. She's still a nice spider and kind of a big jumping spider, but she will not attack your daddy, mama, relatives, or friends. She behaves a lot like a kitty cat or a puppy dog in a ways, which makes her a good pet.

It's all cute and adorable now but when it gets a sudden urge to jump and lands somewhere on your neck or face , THEN well see what's cute

@spinjoh It wouldn't freak me out. I had a brown recluse walk across my neck and I never flinched, I just flicked it off with my hand. It was either in my shirt or on my shirt before it crawled onto my neck. I had no idea the spider was on me until it crawled on my neck, but I knew what it was just by the way it felt when it crawled on me. I waited for it to get below my ear where my jawbone meets, then I brushed the spider off of me. It hid from me but I found it 2 days later.

Won't that thing bite you?

[Torn80cj]

@TheUndeadharlequin Only if handled wrong. I have held so many spiders since holding her, and I still haven't had one bite me.

"Now my spider can teach you how to dougie."

I've never found spiders cute before, until I saw videos of these jumping spiders! I think I'd still be scared if I saw one though. . D:

They don't bite or aren't dangerous, right?

Cute!!!!¡¡¡¡¡

I generally hate hate hate spiders with a passion, I can't stand them.

But I've always loved jumpers <3

The way they look, the way they move, it's adorable and it's fascinating and every time I see one I just have to stop and admire it for 20 minutes or so. I was never a bug fan except for these little guys ^^

@animunki Like most spiders, jumping spiders will only attack if they feel that they are being threatened. But I'm fairly certain their bites don't deliver a harmful amount of venom, though it's good practice to seek medical attention just in case you have a spider bite allergy you don't know about. Aside from that these guys are generally just curious creatures which would only bite as a last resort and would prefer to either go about their business undisturbed, or run away.

@ranchdressing I totally agree... the most I've had crawling (and hopping) on me was six or seven of them at once. They are too cute. All they do (if you are gentle with them) is explore and play. I let a couple crawl up to my nose, but that's where I drew the line - no way was I going to let one migrate INTO my nose. A little puff of air and she jumped off. It was cool

[HysteriaxAlice]

I like to think that those huge fangs in the front are a spider's bushy mustache. :D Makes them seem even cuter than they already are.

@Torn80cj I don't know how you did it, i would fly into a sudden fit! i guess its just a natural reaction for me

[TheUndeadharlequin]

@Torn80cj Ah. Thankyou for enlightening me.
