Renowned arachnologist and biology professor Dr. Mark Milne joins us to unravel the unexpected connections between spiders and birds. Ever wondered how hummingbirds use spider silk for nest-building, or how some South American spiders have turned the tables by preying on birds? Listen as Dr. Milne shares his fascinating journey from studying carnivorous plants to becoming a spider expert, punctuated by captivating encounters with these eight-legged creatures. We also spotlight the Joro spider's arrival in the United States, a new development capturing attention due to its impressive size and rapid spread.
Our conversation then shifts toward the excitement and urgency of discovering and conserving lost species. We recount the thrilling rediscovery of Fagilde's trapdoor spider in Portugal after nearly a century and the ongoing search for another elusive spider in Indiana. Learn how tools like pitfall traps and iNaturalist are instrumental in these discoveries and their vital role in conservation.
As we confront the challenges of climate change, habitat fragmentation, and invasive species, we find hope in the enthusiasm of young conservationists and a growing public awareness of biodiversity's significance. Tune in to explore practical steps for supporting spider populations and fostering a more biodiverse future.
