Spider Web Trees – Pakistan

                                                                                   


An unexpected side-effect of the massive flooding                                                                                                     that swamped one-fifth of Pakistan was that millions of spiders turned trees into cocoons.They crawled into trees to escape the rising flood waters.                                                                                                                    










The gigantic spider web found in Texas is an
 arachnophobe’s worst nightmare.  It covered
200 yards!!!  Despite the fact that spiders are
cannibalistic and their webs are unconnected,
specialists studied more than 240 specimens and
 identified 12 families of spiders in the huge web.
There is little consensus about what sparked this
 once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon.
