Step aside Miley, because spiders have been twerking long before you were even born.
According to researchers at Simon Fraser University, black widow male spiders must first announce themselves to the female of the species by "vibrating" the female's web. The black male widow spiders will have to produce just the right vibration to keep the females from attacking.
Finding the right vibration can be a challenge. When the researchers turned up the sound of the vibration, the female black widows would react to the males as prey by attacking.
