I know spiders are among the animals many people fear, and I understand that. A phobia is not something you can simply reason away.

Even so, I think it is a pity, because spiders are extraordinary animals. The closer you look, the more remarkable they become. In these photographs you can see the spider drawing silk from its spinnerets, a reminder of the astonishing engineering that spiders carry with them wherever they go.

Spiders are also among nature's most important predators, helping to keep insect populations in balance. I am convinced that the more we learn about them, the easier they become to appreciate. You do not have to love spiders, but perhaps knowledge can replace at least a little of the fear with curiosity and respect.
