Welcome to my tree house. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:45 | |
Have a look at these. | 0:00:45 | 0:00:46 | |
Most people think they're spiders, | 0:00:49 | 0:00:51 | |
but they're not. | 0:00:51 | 0:00:53 | |
They're harvestmen. | 0:00:53 | 0:00:54 | |
Some people are a little bit scared of them, | 0:00:54 | 0:00:57 | |
but I think they're amazing. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
There's really nothing to be scared of. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:01 | |
Shall we have a closer look? | 0:01:01 | 0:01:03 | |
Our harvestman certainly does have long legs. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:07 | |
So you can see why people call it a daddy-longlegs. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:10 | |
It's almost as if it's walking on stilts. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
And look how tiny its body is. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
Can you see that little bump on its head? | 0:01:17 | 0:01:19 | |
That's where its eyes are. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:21 | |
It has two eyes, like we do, | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
but it doesn't have very good eyesight. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
So it mostly feels its way around | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
with its long, sensitive legs. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:31 | |
Harvestmen hear, taste and smell using their legs. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:36 | |
One more amazing thing about harvestmen is that | 0:01:36 | 0:01:39 | |
sometimes you can find a harvestman with seven legs instead of eight | 0:01:39 | 0:01:43 | |
and that's because they have a special trick, | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
a life-saver if something's trying to catch them. | 0:01:46 | 0:01:49 | |
If something grabs their leg, they can drop it and run away. | 0:01:49 | 0:01:53 | |
Now, that's really cool, | 0:01:53 | 0:01:55 | |
but it's also kind of sad because they don't grow back | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
and, as we know, they use those long legs | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
for smelling, tasting and hearing. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
So that's like losing your nose, mouth and ears. | 0:02:03 | 0:02:06 | |
So we need to treat them very carefully. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
Now, there's a very good chance | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
that there's a harvestman living near you. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:14 | |
Shall we go and find one? | 0:02:14 | 0:02:16 | |
Come on. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:18 | |
Whatever the weather, we're off together on a Minibeast Adventure! | 0:02:26 | 0:02:31 | |
Hi, Nathan. Hi, Daisy. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:38 | |
-Hi, Jess. -Hi, Jess. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:41 | |
Great to see you! Hi. | 0:02:41 | 0:02:44 | |
Today, we're going on a harvestman adventure. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:47 | |
-Do you know what a harvestman is? -No. | 0:02:47 | 0:02:49 | |
Have you ever seen a daddy-longlegs? | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
-No. -No. -No? | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
Well, maybe I can show you some today, then. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
Get your feelers ready. | 0:02:57 | 0:02:58 | |
ALL: Feelers out, what's about? | 0:02:58 | 0:03:01 | |
We're off on a Minibeast Adventure. | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
Shall we look down here? | 0:03:12 | 0:03:13 | |
There's a spider, there. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:18 | |
Yeah, there is a spider web there. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
Yeah, a tiny spider. | 0:03:20 | 0:03:21 | |
-I saw an even bigger one. -Did you? Where? | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
-Is that one of those ones? -Is that one? | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
Oh, wow. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:29 | |
That's incredible. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:31 | |
Look at this. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
What is that? | 0:03:34 | 0:03:36 | |
Spider. | 0:03:36 | 0:03:38 | |
A spider? | 0:03:38 | 0:03:40 | |
It does look a lot like a spider, doesn't it? | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
But this isn't a spider, | 0:03:42 | 0:03:44 | |
this is what we've been looking for. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
This is a harvestman. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:49 | |
What does it look like? | 0:03:50 | 0:03:51 | |
-Big. -It looks like a spider but it's not a spider. | 0:03:51 | 0:03:55 | |
No, it's not a spider. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:57 | |
What do you think it's doing with this big long leg here? | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |
I think it's broken. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:02 | |
It has actually got one leg missing, you're right. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
It's supposed to have eight legs, like spiders, | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
because it is closely related to spiders. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
Would you like to hold it, Daisy? | 0:04:12 | 0:04:14 | |
-Yes. -Here you go. | 0:04:14 | 0:04:15 | |
It's just feeling you to see if you're safe to walk on. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
DAISY GIGGLES | 0:04:20 | 0:04:22 | |
It likes it. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:23 | |
-THEY LAUGH -That tickles. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
-That tickles! -It is quite ticklish. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
Would you like to hold it, Nathan? | 0:04:29 | 0:04:31 | |
Why's it bended its knee? | 0:04:33 | 0:04:35 | |
-It's putting it under so he can clean it with his mouth. -Oh. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:41 | |
NATHAN SCREAMS | 0:04:41 | 0:04:44 | |
THEY LAUGH | 0:04:44 | 0:04:47 | |
-Does that tickle, Nathan? -Yeah. | 0:04:48 | 0:04:50 | |
He's feeling your ear. | 0:04:50 | 0:04:53 | |
-Can you see what colour its body is? -Blue. | 0:04:57 | 0:04:59 | |
Navy blue. | 0:05:01 | 0:05:02 | |
Navy blue, it is, isn't it? | 0:05:02 | 0:05:04 | |
Why are those dots on him? | 0:05:06 | 0:05:08 | |
Well, that's a very good question. | 0:05:08 | 0:05:11 | |
It's got lots of dots, hasn't it? | 0:05:11 | 0:05:13 | |
And its leg bends in all of those different places. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
Like this? | 0:05:16 | 0:05:18 | |
A bit like that, yeah. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:20 | |
-Actually, it's more like this. -Knees. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
-Knees, yes. And how many knees do you have? -Two. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:26 | |
Two, one on each leg. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:28 | |
How many knees does the harvestman have? | 0:05:28 | 0:05:31 | |
Can you count them? | 0:05:31 | 0:05:32 | |
-Six. -Yeah, it's got lots of knees on each leg, hasn't it? | 0:05:32 | 0:05:36 | |
It's leg bends in lots of different places. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:39 | |
What do you think your legs would be like | 0:05:39 | 0:05:41 | |
if you had lots of knees, like that? | 0:05:41 | 0:05:44 | |
Like... | 0:05:46 | 0:05:47 | |
Do you think you'd be like that? | 0:05:47 | 0:05:50 | |
Do you think you'd have long legs if you had lots and lots of knees? | 0:05:53 | 0:05:57 | |
Would they be really long? | 0:05:57 | 0:05:59 | |
One there, one there, one there... | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
-One everywhere. -Yeah. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:04 | |
Even on your head. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:05 | |
And on your eyes. | 0:06:05 | 0:06:07 | |
Well, he hasn't got any knees on his head, | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
but that would be funny, wouldn't it? | 0:06:10 | 0:06:13 | |
If your legs grew like a harvestman's legs, | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
you'd be able to cross roads by stepping from one pavement | 0:06:23 | 0:06:27 | |
to the other without treading on a crossing at all. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:31 | |
Lots of people think that harvestmen are spiders, | 0:06:33 | 0:06:36 | |
but they're not spiders. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:38 | |
So we're going to have a look at a harvestman and a spider | 0:06:38 | 0:06:43 | |
to see if we can see the differences. | 0:06:43 | 0:06:46 | |
What can you see that's different about harvestmen and spiders? | 0:06:46 | 0:06:50 | |
Well, the legs are very different. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:55 | |
Spiders' legs are hairy but harvestmen's legs are... | 0:06:55 | 0:06:59 | |
..not hairy. | 0:07:01 | 0:07:03 | |
Well, it looks like the harvestman's body is smaller than the spider's. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:09 | |
-What about the shape of them? -Oval. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
Yeah, the harvestman has an oval body. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
What does the spider's body look like? | 0:07:14 | 0:07:17 | |
It's an upside-down triangle shape, kind of. | 0:07:17 | 0:07:21 | |
Yeah, and it's got a head and then a body, hasn't it? | 0:07:21 | 0:07:24 | |
It's got sort of two bits, can you see that? | 0:07:24 | 0:07:27 | |
The harvestman, its head is sort of part of its body | 0:07:27 | 0:07:30 | |
and it's all one big circle, like that, isn't it? | 0:07:30 | 0:07:33 | |
Spiders make their homes out of webs. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
Yes, they make their homes out of webs. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
Harvestmen can't make silk and they can't make webs. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
Spiders do make webs from their silk. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:44 | |
So if harvestmen can't live in webs because they can't make silk, | 0:07:44 | 0:07:48 | |
-where do they live? -In a bush? | 0:07:48 | 0:07:50 | |
In bushes, yes. We did find one in a bush earlier, didn't we? | 0:07:50 | 0:07:55 | |
Wow, that's so cool. | 0:07:56 | 0:07:58 | |
I loved that Minibeast Adventure, | 0:08:00 | 0:08:03 | |
it was funny how they crawled all over us, wasn't it? | 0:08:03 | 0:08:06 | |
Maybe you could go on a harvestman adventure, too. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:09 | |
There's a good chance there's one living near you, | 0:08:09 | 0:08:12 | |
but you need to look very carefully. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:14 | |
As we discovered, they're nothing to be scared of. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:18 | |
In fact, they're really amazing. | 0:08:18 | 0:08:20 | |
Feelers out, what's about? | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
Happy hunting, adventurers! | 0:08:22 | 0:08:24 |
