Introduction

This spider that is very small has a lot to tell about so hang on and lets go. As you learn about this Black Widow Spider you might read about their food, adaptations, and fun facts.

Adaptations

Adaptations help things live, so hold on and I will tell you about my animal’s adaptations. This spider can do a lot to its enemies. The Black Widow Spider produces poison called venom. The poison helps them kill predators which helps them live. The Black Widow Spider has a sticky web which helps them catch food. Also it is easy for them to kill their predators. I have just taught you three awesome adaptations of the Black Widow Spider.

Fun Facts

This very small Spider has many fun facts. When I did this report I thought these were awesome facts. This Spider can be up to 15 times more poisonous then a rattlesnake. When I found that out I thought that was amazing. Also only female spiders have poisoned people. I thought only male poison people. When the female poisons people they repeatedly bite their victims. I love these fun facts. That was three fun facts about this Spider.

Food

The Black Widow Spider loves to eat food but it is very gross to us and to all. The Spider loves to catch its food in its web. I am about to tell you about a really cool way they eat, well it least that is what I think. The Black Widow Spider gets its prey in its web, then cuts it loose, then eats it. That is way cool. This Spider eats other Spiders. I think that is gross. That was just some ways and some things that Black Widow Spiders eat.

Conclusion

I have just learned a lot about Black Widow Spiders. I wonder what it would be like to have a Black Widow Spider as a pet?
