    As someone who knows what it's like to be bitten not once but four times by a single black widow, I must say you earned my respect. Widow venom is a neuro toxin. Drop for drop widow venom is 15× more potent than a diamond back rattlesnake. The symptoms of a bite at first are those of a heart attack. Severe shortness of breath, chest pain , then tummy pain, nausea, I had a fever over 105° severe muscle pain. Convulsing, then worse paralyzed from the waist down. After numerous vials of antivenin symptoms improved however the paralysis lasted months. It's the same with the copperhead bite I had , critters are not out to get us. They do not go out of their way just to attack us. If they bite it's because we accidentally come into contact with them. If you felt threatened by something hundreds of times bigger than you would you not try to protect yourself too?

      You were bitten four times, jackass. Your description is of a person bitten four times, jackass. The symptoms will be different and less intense than a person bit one time on their thumb.

    I’ve found black widow spiders to be fairly aggressive compared to most other spiders… particularly if you “bother” them. I’ve had numerous ones make a b line straight for me haha.

    • @HystericalCruelty
      @HystericalCruelty Рік тому +2

      Ofc if you entice it will be, but compared to other spiders they aren’t aggressive at all. For example, i put my hand in a black widows web once by accident and instead of running to me it ran to cover its eggs. When theyre scared they’ll make themselves noticeable by showing their red hourglass

    I got gobs of them around my house. Territorial and don’t wander. They stay in same spot. Very fast in their “tangled” webs. Fascinating and beautiful creature. I don’t touch the big ones but the babies sometimes crawl on me when I relocate them. SoCal.

    I actually had a really rare thing happen to me. I didn’t really realize it at the time, but I was in the Catskills in New York State stacking wood (I was little and helping my dad) I saw a spider with a red pattern on its underside hiding in the wood pile. I had the good sense to get away from it. I did some research just now and I think the spider I saw could’ve been a black widow. Apparently there have been sightings further and further north lately, and although I’m skeptical, the spider I saw looked remarkably similar to a black widow.

    • @random_furry6114
      @random_furry6114 Рік тому +1

      So, upon research, it's not impossible to see them in specific areas in New York, but it's very very rare. So it is possible you saw a real black widow, but I would assume you didn't see a second one growing up at all? If so, then it likely was something else

      @@drawnbysean1624 If it was hiding in a stack of wood, then it likely was a black widow. They are nocturnal spiders, and assuming a lot of areas in new york have some shade, then there could be a few. If you remember them having a little red on them, that was probably the hour glass. It's extremely rare, but it isn't impossible, so I personally think it's possible

    Dear Mr. Coyote Peterson, I have some questions about the Black Widow spider that I hope that you could answer.
    1. Are they flexible? If they are, how flexible are they?
    2. I heard that they are almost completely blind, so how would you describe their eyesight?
    3. I heard that they can “see” by feeling vibrations from the ground. But, can they sense vibration through any solid surface; like, wood, glass, metal, plastic, ice, dry wall, etc? Which surface would negatively affect their ability to sense the vibrations?
    4. Do they have a sense of smell? If so, how strong is it, and how far can they smell?
    5. Do they have a sense of taste?
    6. How do they fight and defend themselves?
    I think that is all of my questions for now, I hope that you have a nice day.
