Scientists (and adventurers!) often go on a safari to observe, count, and describe animals and their unique habitats. Have you ever gone on a "Web Safari?"


To go on your own web Safari, all you need to do is go outside (or even inside!) and look for as many spider webs as you can find.

Safety

Know the characteristics of the Black Widow and Brown Recluse spiders. Do not touch them.

Directions

1. Print out a data table to take on your web safari. If you do not have Adobe Acrobat on your computer, you can get it here.

2. Put a check mark next to the name of each web you found.

3. Check where you found the web.

4. Tally the number of each web you found and its location.
