I took this picture!.... Isn't it amazing? hehehe...
These are called ''Harvestmen''. They have eight legs, but they're not Spiders!...
Harvestmen are invertebrate animals that belong to the order of Opiliones...
The main differences between Harvestmen and Spiders are that in harvestmen the body sections (''opistosoma'' and ''prosoma'') are joined, so they look like an egg... And also, the Harvestmen have no Venom.
This picture was taken in ChiloƩ about two months ago. I went there to help my cousin in the projects that he's working on for the Conservation of the native species that are found in that region.
I like this photo because I always thought that in the wilds of the forests, animals that are too beautiful and colorful are dangerous as well (like venomous frogs or stuff like that) like if they where warning the other ones who gets to see them…
Harvestmen aren’t like that… they are inoffensive little animals that can only defend themselves playing dead ore with Scent glands…
I also like this picture because… i took it!...
