Stripes In Common, Maybe More

Zebra is Swahili for striped Donkey you know. You did? Oh. Anyway I just reflected that Zebra Spiders might quite properly therefore be called Striped Donkey Spiders. Mind , they are better jumpers than Donkeys, being a kind of jumping spider after all, What can Zebra's do that Jumping spiders can't eh? If you were about to say dream , you better hold your striped Donkeys because some recent research suggests some spiders may have something like R.E.M. sleep, possibly because they're looking inward at non existent things as we and cats and dogs and who knows what else do,
