How it feels

This Danish educational film follows the life cycle of the cross spider. It shows how the spiderlings hatch from eggs in June and quickly learn to spin their own orb webs. The film explains the difference between the sticky capture threads and the smooth structural threads of the web.

What happens

Korsedderkoppen er en dansk undervisningsfilm fra 1956, der er instrueret af Erik R. Knudsen efter eget manuskript. Korsedderkoppens unger kommer ud af æggene i juni, og i løbet af få dage er de i stand til at lave hver sit hjulspind. Fangtrådende, som skal holde fast på byttet, er klæbrige og meget elastiske, medens de øvrige tråde er glatte. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
