Stephen Fellenberg, LUNCH (Wildlife and Animal 2019)

Why are we (humans) so afraid of spiders? Is it that we are so removed for the natural environment that even an orb spider wrapping a bug (Hemiptera) for lunch is terrifying! In comparison to our meals when purchased they come wrapped in some kind of plastic. The bug will be sucked dry and all the leftovers (the exoskeleton and web) are biodegradable. We can work with the natural environment, to do this all we have to do is get outside and have a look enjoy.
