You’ve probably heard the phrase that time is increasingly “crazy,” going from hour to hour without much warning.In fact, thanks to this unpredictability, incredible photographs of nature’s phenomena have already been captured.
However, it is hard to believe that it is possible anywhere on the planet to look up at the sky on a normal day and find a real cloud composed mainly of spiders.That’s right, spiders!
- It wasn’t exactly a mass of acharides falling from the sky.
- But a resident of the village of Esperito Santo dourado named Joo Pedro Fonseca spotted with his mobile phone’s camera a lot of spiders that.
- Linked to extremely thin nets.
- Actually seemed to be part of a rain.
Fortunately for the inhabitants of the commune of just under 4,500 inhabitants, located 430 km from Belo Horizonte, the species in question is not toxic enough to pose a great danger to humans. Biologist Cristina Anne Rheims, who works at the renowned Butantan Institute in Sao Paulo, said they were Parawixia bistriata spiders.
Ainda de acordo com a bióloga, esse tipo de comportamento está mais sujeito a ocorrer justamente em cidades de característica mais rural, como é em Espírito Santo do Dourado, e em períodos onde a temperatura sobe muito. A chuva em questão se forma como uma estratégia de caça para prender as presas em suas teias.
Still, it’s still a reason for amazing photographs, isn’t it?
