Anthropology is the study of the human race, its culture and society, and its physical development. By examining such topics as how people live, what they think, what they produce, and how they interact with their environments, anthropologists try to inderstand the full range of human diversity as well as what all people share in common. Anthropologists ask such basic questions as: When, where, and how did human evolve? How do people adapt to different enviroments? How have societies developed and changed from the ancient past o the present? Answers to these quentions can help us to understand what it means to be human. They also help us to learn ways to meet the present-day needs of people all over the world and to plam how we might live in the future.

Contrary to popular belief, most spider bites are mot dangerous to humans. Of the 40,000 species of spiders, only about 30 species produce bites that may cause illness. Spiders rarely attack humans unless they feel threattened, and if they do bite, the wound is rarely serious. There is absolutely no reason to kill any spider or to call an exterminator if you have spiders in your house. As an old English saying goes, “If you want to live and thrive, let a spider run alive!”
