Those peacock spiders are certainly colorful. It does remind me of an axiom about colorful things in nature - the brighter they are the more likely to be toxic/venomous etc. It may only be true of berries and so forth but when I see the lycra-coated backside of the spider in that first image, my immediate instinct is to emigrate.
