Jumping Spiders with Dr Sebastian Echeverri

Grubbing In The Filth: An Invertebrate Podcast

If you like pagentry, ferocity and excellent eyesight then I have the spider for you (though personally, my eyesight is very poor). Tom is joined by Dr Sebastian Echeverri, arachnologist, science communicator and host of the BBC Earth podcast, to learn about jumping spiders. We explore all that makes the jumping spider special, including the aspects of Salticidae lifestyle which are curiously relatable. Plus, extensive discussion of what it means to care about invertebrates, and their relative obscurity within popular understanding despite their overwhelming presence within the animal kingdom.
