  • It appears male black widow spiders are taking a page out of Miley Cyrus' book, twerking

  • to alert potential mates of their presence.

  • A team of Canadian researchers made the discovery that male black widow spiders move their backsides

  • rapidly, commonly referred to as twerking in human terms, when entering the web of a

  • female spider. (Via LiveScience)

  • But don't get the wrong idea, these male spiders aren't twerking because they think their female

  • counterparts are, ahem, looking for some action.

  • No, they're twerking it out because the females are more than twice their size and will eat

  • them if they don't send a gesture of good faith.

  • You see, female black widow spiders are not the friendliest of mates, even by spider standards,

  • so the male black widow sends friendly vibrations through the female's web to let her know he's

  • here to mate.

  • And it just so happens that, like in humans, the best way to do this is by shaking your

  • booty like there's no tomorrow. (Via E!)

  • And apparently, it's not just twerking it, but twerking it the right way that's key,

  • gentlemen.

  • LiveScience explains: "Strong vibrations sent the female spiders scurrying over in attack

  • mode. But little whispers simply got their attention ... some even responded with abdominal

  • twitches of their own."

  • So there you have it: for a male spider, it's twerk or be eaten.
