WILLS POINT, Texas — Entomologists are debating the origin and rarity of a sprawling spider web that blankets several trees, shrubs and the ground along a 200-yard stretch of trail in a North Texas park.
Officials at Lake Tawakoni State Park say the massive mosquito trap is a big attraction for some visitors, while others won’t go anywhere near it.
Count me among those who ‘won’t go anywhere near it’!
“There are a lot of folks that don’t realize spiders do that,” said Jackman, author of “A Field Guide to the Spiders and Scorpions of Texas.”
“Until we get some samples sent to us, we really won’t know what species of spider we’re talking about,” Jackman said.
It’s a spider. It’s got eight legs. Probably hairy. Who cares what KIND it is!
Yes, I’m a girl!
