Description We make a short trip into the lifes of invertebrate animals - spiders and insects - troublesome bugs for many people. We realize that spiders hunger is more thirst in fact; that spiders have eight legs and also eyes, but no mandibles. Animation allows to understand a process of building of orb-weaver spiders web. Maybe you would be surpriced , that a hairy tarantula is quite friendly creature. Thanks a film tricks you can look at the prey as a small jumping spider for a while and then watch the world with assembled eyes of a fly. We will spend a horror, which takes place among stalks of grass: hunt of bush-cricked called Saga quietly creeping for its prey – Praying Mantid. You will see how insects breath with its abdomen. We explain, for instance, why giant prickly leaf insects dress off, what is an imperfect metamorfosis of cockroaches and a perfect metamorfosis of butterflies. We also observe spiders by means of a microscope and watch 3D-animation about construction of arthropod bodies. May-be then you would realize why insects are so widespread and successfull.
