Now let's think of how we can describe the spider.

Spiders have four pairs of legs. The legs may have claws at the tip. A few species use the first pair of legs as feelers to find the prey. Spiders have silk-making organs called spinnerets near the back of their body. They spin silk from a liquid made by special glands. It becomes solid thread as after the spider pushes it out of it's body. Many spiders make venom or poison, that they shoot in to their prey. The venom of most spiders is not harmful to people.

Let's take a look at some Arachnid facts:
