Mini_ghost420 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Male black widow spiders tend to select their mates by determining if the female has eaten already to avoid being eaten themselves. They are able to tell if the female has fed by sensing chemicals in the web Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilosipherStoned Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 you forgot to say how they do it..touch and taste. They flick the web with their front leg to get an idea of how sturdy it is..then they taste their leg to get more information on the protien content.
