On a walk around the bush in Australia, entomologist Jurgen Otto came across a tiny insect he'd never come in contact with before- the Peacock Spider. The arachnid, scientifically known as Maratus Volans, is a mere 5mm in size and is capable of quickly escaping a scene and jumping erratically. Yet, what defiines the spider best is perhaps its unusual likeness to peacocks.
See additional images as well as a video of a male peacock spider cruising for chicks.
