'''Spiders''' are a group of [[arachnid]]s characterized by possessing eight legs and eyes, a fused [[head]] and thorax and a large abdomen. Both [[land]] and [[sea]] varieties are known, with many of the [[sea]] spiders being known for their spindly legs and often strange appearances. Spiders feed on small prey such as [[insect]]s, although some exotic varieties are blood-drinkers.
