OK, so I've always really liked jumping spiders, but after watching this video (30 minutes), I'm going to appreciate them even more.

I HIGHLY suggest the watch:

It brings absolute joy to my heart. I've watched it many times, just for the warm gooey feeling in my soul. Go jumpers!

Loved this!!! I found the techniques for assessing the colors they actually perceive fascinating. The tiny magnet, and tiny ball!! Wow. This really makes you think about what color actually is, how species are constantly evolving, and sadly the loss of knowledge through extinction mentioned at the end. Thanks for sharing!

@sambiology That was truly captivating! It's remarkable how scientists conduct such intricate experiments to understand color perception. Jumping spiders are truly extraordinary creatures! Thank you for sharing!
