    Jumping spiders are the tigers of the mm scale. They jump and pounce, they stare at you and stalk their prey, they carefully plan their attack from a strategic vantage point, they are cute, furry and pettable…so long as you are at least twice as large.

      so long as you are at least twice as large.

      Which really isn’t that much of a challenge considering the largest jumping spiders are 2.5cm in length.
