    To be fair, Peter is really covered by hair, only it is microscopic; that's how he climbs walls.

  • @tatir7081
    To add onto the spider facts, jumping spiders are smart despite their size, tarantulas can regenerate limbs if it's severed but not to the point of death, some spider species can swim, and spiders have tiny paws for feet, which are not even noticeable at first glance.
