True facts about the Spiny Orb Weaver

The Spiny Orb Weaver, or the Gasteracantha cancriformis, is one of the 35,000 spider species that is recognizable by its striking appearance. As their name suggests, these spiders are known for the six spines on their body.

Common insects eaten by spiny orb weavers include moths, beetles, mosquitoes, and flies. Paralyzing their prey with a bite, then they consume the insides of their prey.

They mate at the hub of the web, where the male slowly approach, there is a chance that she will maybe eat him, and when reaching the hub, the little male climbs on the female or the male create a line of web pure to mate to attract the female with a vibrator because the male will vibrate his web.

Since the stercoral sac contains bacteria, which helps break down the spider's food, it seems likely that gas is produced during this process, and therefore there is certainly the possibility that spiders do fart.
