Saharan Rolling Spider

Professor Ingo Rechenberg of the University of Technology in Berlin, Germany, has discovered a presumably still unknown kind of spider on the edge of the Sahara.

The spider, called Araneus rota, is capable of rolling on its outstretched legs, achieving speeds of over 4 mph.
