Peacock Mating Dance

Peacock Spider performs to attract a mate. The male peacock jumping spider must dance for his life. In order to woo a female and avoid being eaten, he performs an intricate dance using a brilliantly colored fan attached to his abdomen. If the female approves, he is allowed to mate. If not, he becomes her next meal. Video credits to Flynn_prall #awpcwild #spider #peacockspider #nature #naturelover #naturephotography #bestoftheday | AWPC WILD

Shake your tail-feathers 🦚 Peacocks are exclusively male. Their less colourful female counterparts are actually called peahens, and they choose their mates based on the size and colour of their feather trains. #EarthCapture by Prathap Gangireddy via Instagram | BBC Earth
