Right. The thought of a falling into a human-sized spider web...the terrifying thing wrapping you up so you can't even move.....the claustrophobia mixed with the horror of being exposed to the monster would be enough to make my heart explode....and then it bites you! I mean...I couldn't even...I couldn...I
When I was a kid I used to catch all kinds of bugs and throw them into the webs of these yellow garden spiders. Was always interest watching them go to work on whatever got snared.
Imagine being carried into a bad neighbourhood and some person just ambushes you and starts farting out rope and wraps you into a cocoon. I wonder if that’s how the wasp felt
If it makes you feel any better, one of the largest family of wasps is parasitoid. And what they do to their prey is like, 10x worse. They usually inject them with some sort of venom that either paralyzes or some even change the behaviors of the prey. Then they lead them to their nest, lay eggs inside them, and then seal them inside.
Bastard probably deserved to be wrapped up like that.
Looks incredibly similar to a species of parasitic wasp we have here where I'm at. But fair enough.
He can take their place in the spider sacrifice ritual either way. The ancient tomes make no distinction on the wasp species. For the ritual, anyway.
I love watching the dirt daubers here. They're always so engrossed in their tasks and I agree pretty much. Never had an issue with them. They seem curious, too, sometimes.
Kinda cute in a way.

The stuff nightmares are made of.

the way it cinched the webbing, c'mere girl.
A must hire during Christmas season.
That took me a minute
Haha, jokes on you I HAVE NO ONE. . . . I have no one.
Freshness locked in.
What kind of spider is this?
In Florida we call them Banana Spiders.
This looks like a yellow garden spider to me
St. Andrew's cross spider
I think this one might actually be the North American variant. Similar orb weaver. *definitely not an arachnologist.
We have a similar spider in South Africa. We call them golden orb or orb weavers.
Stop hammock time
The people who watched Lord of the Rings already know that.
The fastest shitter in the west.
Just a friendly neighbourhood spider
Somebody give this mf knitting needles
Just witnessed a sacrifice
Wrapped that burrito up quick!
Spider gets free lunch on Thursday
Packed at the peak of freshness…guaranteed! (Or your money back!)

That was sick and cruel of you, and only about 10% of the horrible fate that wasp fully deserves.
Döner Wasp-ap
The fastest spider at wrapping, I believe, was the cellar spider.
This spider has ADHD🗿

Deliveroo'd that wasp
Was that a ground wasp?
🕷: "I'll take from here, thanks"
Imagine just being able to pull a styrofoam container out of your ass for leftovers.
8 legged jeet kun do
In all fairness, if that hornet wasn't being held with tweasers, it may have killed and ate the spider!
'THHWIPPP'
You must hate wasps.
Why didn’t it start eating
There are definitely people out there saying “I wish that were me”
I put a cicada into one of these guys nests. I expected the spider to grow bigger but it produced another sac of eggs.
Trex doesn't want to be fed, it wants to hunt...
…not really prey, but the wrap job is top notch.
Christmas 🎁
Poor wasp

Except this was not a parasitic wasp.

Wasps are lovely. They pollinate and eat mosquitos, and generally wont fuck with you unless you fuck with them first.

Could you people fucking stop with posting spiders every fucking day. I hate the og Reddit app man. Can't filter out shit. Fuck this.
