play dead




A new lesson learned while staying in nature.

Do you know spiders like to play dead? i spotted this spider at the edge of the ledge in my guest house & thought that it was dead as he was on its back his leg was facing the ceiling. However, when i approached it again the next morning, it was up on its four legs. & when i returned 10 mins later (before i get out) it was back playing dead on its back!!! What an amazing acting skills. (i also wonder why didn't he run away instead???!!!)

After speaking to the owner, i realized that all these wild creatures are probably 10 times more scared than you of them.
