> [@gurujulp](#): > > You know, I took a look, and both of the pictures show seven legs- > One is missing on the left, one on the right. The one that looks like it’s only got 3 right legs actually does have 4, if you look very carefully- the middle two are nearly lined up, but not quite. Look at the larger image and it’s more obvious. They do lose legs easily though- and grow them back if they’re young enough. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/cool-spider-pictures/603640.md?page=1)
