What the Black Widow looks like
I never saw a Black Widow spider until I got my
research paper and saw it. I thought the Black
Widow spider was really dangerous to us human and
now know that it is. This spider is usually a
shiny black. His front legs are smaller than the
legs on the back. The abdomen is oval looking. He
has eight small eyes. He has an red hourglass
underneath his abdomen. the hourglass has two
triangle points touching each other. He is about
half an inch long. I thought spiders were not
smart until I saw one .

Where Mr. Widow lives !!!
The Black Widow Spider is found in the United
States and other countries. It is found any place
that is dark. They make tangled-looking webs
usually near the ground where they wait for their
food.

What Mr. Black Widow eats.
Black Widows use silk make webs, near the ground
to catch their. The Black Widow Spiders eat
flies, moths, crickets, small reptiles and other
animals. It will eat any animal that gets stuck
in their web. I think that spiders should not be
lazy and get their abdomens on land to get its
FOOD !!!!!!

The female's bite is poisonous to humans. The
bite is followed by pain, swelling, nausea, and
difficulty in breathing. Its bite is sometimes
fatal. The female eats the male during mating.
She hangs belly upward and rarely leaves her
web.Her babies will eat each other. The females
lay eggs in the silk cocoons or sacs which are
round in shape.The Black Widows are shy. It means
that she is shy but the female attacks when her
web is stepped on or damaged.
