This is symbiosis at work, kids.

The spider gets free, easy food. The impala gets dramatically less bothered by flys n shit.

[–]Gundun 10 points11 points ago

Well... I guess it's just a matter of evolution fine tuning before we will see spider-web impalas spitting horned spiders to attack.

[–]jackryan006 10 points11 points ago

That ain't no impala. Where the fuck are the 20-inch blades? dumbasses.

Where can I get one of these? It might help with mosquitoes while hiking or camping.

[–]zgardner44 0 points1 point ago

I'm so glad this is near the top. IT's educational and interesting. This case specifically is an example of mutualism.

[–]mightybird 1 point2 points ago

you think? are there other examples of this? or is it just a coincidence?

[–]fitzroy95 39 points40 points ago

The Impala has only just walked through the bushes/branches that the original web was spun on, and the whole web is now stuck to its horns and right across its face.

Please note how much web is still stuck over its face as well as directly across its eyes and ears. Even an impala is bright enough to scrape that shit off pretty quickly.

[–]Tautriadelta420 7 points8 points ago

In addition to fitzroy95's comment, I would like to add that symbiosis like this couldn't exist for a very practical reason: the next time that animal walks through the woods, that web will most likely be destroyed (branches, brambles, etc.) It would be awesome if that were real, and maybe the impala's live on the plains, but that is just my sci-fi imagination.

Let's have Shitty Watercolor draw a wide open plain with some impalas on it (as cars, of course) with big spiderwebs where the windshield should be, cruising around and catching bugs.

Epic.

[–]fondots 2 points3 points ago

Just to clarify, Impalas (blah blah blah, Wikipedia isn't a reliable source) actually are a plains animal, but I still agree with the rest of what you said. Even on the plains the webs would still probably get fucked up pretty fast, especially during breeding season when the males start fighting with their horns.

[–]TuskedOdin 1 point2 points ago

You act as tho a symbiosis is a permenant thing, although I agree with the fact it's unlikely, but just as an example, there's a particular type of crab I think it's a type of hermit crab that actually puts sea anemone on its shell as a deterrent against predators, and probably a much more similar comparison would be to that of a sea anemone and a clown fish, the clown fish doesn't permenantly reside in or on the anemone, but in exchange it takes care of things like parasites. So in the end the spider would be the clown fish and the sea anemone would be the impala.

[–]Sojio 1 point2 points ago

Pretty sure the impala just walking into a spider web

[–]Dugen -5 points-4 points ago

NOPE! Chuck Testa!

[–]watchagonnado 14 points15 points ago

If the fly will not come to your web, you must bring your web to the fly!

[–]antiaxiom 10 points11 points ago

[–]anal_travesties 19 points20 points ago

Impala walks through spider web, it gets caught on its antlers/face, this picture probably taken very shortly after. I doubt the spider/web was around for very much longer after this picture was taken.

[–]josh6499 0 points1 point ago

Or it's stuffed and doesn't move at all.

[–]Dstroyer71 8 points9 points ago

I once had a spider make a web between my trucks antenna and the windshield. It made it all the way to san Diego. That's a two hour trip on the freeway.

[–]Ihaveastupidcat 4 points5 points ago

I feel bad for the impala having the spiderwebs on its face and eyes. Nothing annoys me more then walking threw a spiderweb and having it wrap around my face.

[–]Idinko 4 points5 points ago

It's a dream-catcher.

[–]icearrowx 4 points5 points ago

The animal is obviously taxidermized. They rub their antlers on random shit and blink their eyeballs...

[–]whitekeys 9 points10 points ago

Tennis anyone?

[–]RICH_LITTLE 12 points13 points ago

That's an impala

Is this gonna be another guy that reposts the top comments, a la Trapped_In_Reddit?

[–]TroloLeon 4 points5 points ago

Is it stuffed? Or why does it have web in his eyes

[–]Tautriadelta420 2 points3 points ago

It's real. It just ran through a web.

[–]DownvotingSpartan 2 points3 points ago

It's all fun until the mobile home decides to walk under/straddle a branch with his antlers, and then it's back to square one.

[–]OrderAmongChaos 2 points3 points ago

I once had a spider make an entire web between my lower legs while I was sitting in a flatbed fishing boat. I was busy watching my line, I felt a slight itch and looked down, sure enough, an entire web was there with the spider just chilling in the middle. I let it stay the whole time I was fishing. I think this was the spider, but I remember it having a full web and being sort of stick-like in shape.

[–]CODDE117 0 points1 point ago

How did you live? But seriously, holy crap. How did a spider like that end up on the boat anyways?

[–]vuzo 0 points1 point ago

Imagine all the flys that get caught in that web while the impala is walking.

If impalas fear spiders as much as redditors, then this one wins all the fights.

[–]Roderick111 -1 points0 points ago

Despite the implicit horror of this photo, I bet that animal appreciates his resident spiderbro when mosquito/black fly season comes around.

Yo, dawg, Reddit be fickle, so I put some chuck testa in your Impala.

[–]orly-OWL 1 point2 points ago

Every time I see an opportunity to use Chuck Testa, I open the thread and see someone else has already done it and they were downvoted. Makes me think twice before ever reminding anyone that I am still alive...

[–]zarilix 0 points1 point ago

You probably thaught this impala was alive. No. It's not. It's dead.

[–]TrolLCD 2 points3 points ago

What if they started doing that to us in our sleep....

[–]2dollarb -1 points0 points ago

...laying eggs in our ears and nostrils.

[–]Tautriadelta420 2 points3 points ago

After Some-odd thousand years, they would develop larvae that hatch and then burrow, to feel on the host's flesh. You would wake up one morning to pop a zit and squeeze out a baby spider, with hairs protruding from it's maggot-like body. You can feel them as they separately pull from your skin like stitches, and it tickles a bit as it hurts. After it's fully escaped from your chewed flesh, it's wastes ooze out from the empty hole, right below your nostril, and into your mouth.

Sweet dreams, children : )

[–]2dollarb 1 point2 points ago

Thankfully the wasps will eventually arrive to combat the spiders.

[–]Tautriadelta420 0 points1 point ago

The wasps would be forced to mate with the mosquitoes to become more powerful fighters. These mutant waspitoes would be capable of fighting off two spiders at a time, but they are vulnerable to a web attack. Ultimately, in the end, the waspitoes are left with no choice but to abandon their wings, and mate with scorpions, for their body mass and armor. The newly formed Waspo Scorpitoes, wasting all this time with crazy inter special war orgies are unaware that the spiders have been breeding as well. The spiders mated with the dung beetle, for they are common, and tough. As a new species, the speedle was a killing machine, leaving no room for the wasp scorpidoes to adapt, unless they mated with the Nauplius Larvae to decrease their size. They of course used Non-Traditional Adaptive Radiation (NA) to create a new species, the NAcho Doritoes.

EDIT: Spelling.

[–]2dollarb 0 points1 point ago

I've been attacked by Nacho Doritos before, it wasn't pretty.

[–]Tautriadelta420 0 points1 point ago

They are so tiny, it's like having crabs that leave behind an orange, salty, residue. Oh, here's a tip: don't lick it.
