Encounter between Black Widow and the spectacular Tiger Spider
· The tiger spider (Argiope) is one of the most curious spiders you can see, with its shieldshaped abdomen ending in points and its silver color that helps it withstand the hours it spends in the sun. It builds its web preferably in tall grasses, where it places itself in the center waiting for its next prey. Its colors help it blend into dry grass, so it can be difficult to find.

· The Latrodectus usually has small white markings on the abdomen, being completely black but without the characteristic red spot of its relative the Black Widow (Latrodectus mactans), its fabric is one of the most sticky and its shelters are easily identifiable by the way they protect their hiding places.

· There are about 2,000 different species of scorpions, of which about thirty or forty have venom powerful enough to kill a human. The buthus scorpion (Buthus ibericus) is a great climber and a tireless hunter, thanks to its pincers and stinger it can control its prey at its mercy.
