Negev widow
The Negev widow is a venomous spider that lives in the hot, dry deserts of the Negev and the Arava valley. It builds large webs in bushes and brush, where it hunts insects at night. Its bite can cause latrodectism, the illness caused by widow spider venom.1

During the day it hides from sight under the densely silk-lined nest area of its web, and it is mainly active at night.1
Kosk egiten badu
- Garbitu koska eta jarri izotz-poltsa bat gainean minerako. Lortu mediku-laguntza mina handia bada, zabaltzen bada edo pertsona gaizki sentitzen bada.
Deitu beti lehenik zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911). Lehen sorospenei buruzko orientabide orokorra da hau, ez mediku-aholkua. Lehen sorospenen oinarriak
Egon seguru
- Ez ukitu, ez harrapatu eta ez zirikatu inoiz animalia basati bat, txikia izan arren, eta lo edo hilda dagoela badirudi ere.
- Utzi tartea. Bat aurkitzen baduzu, egon lasai, egin atzera poliki eta utzi bere bidetik joaten.
- Batek kosk egiten badizu: egon lasai, egon geldi, deitu zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911) edo joan ospitalera azkar. Gogoratu nolakoa zen, argazki batek laguntzen du.
Ez dabil zure atzetik. Pozoia janaria harrapatzeko edo bere burua babesteko erabiltzen du, eta askoz nahiago du ezkutatu. Seguru egoteari buruz gehiago

Datuak
After mating, the male may escape being eaten by living in the nest with the female for a time, but in other cases the female eats him.1
Its web has separate areas for nesting and for catching prey, and it also helps keep the spider cool by providing shade in summer.1
Its webs often include a funnel of silk decorated with debris, which may help hide the spider from predators such as birds flying overhead.1
The web's silk carries pheromones that help males find female nests.1
Its colour darkens after each moult, so the spider becomes darker as it grows older.1
