The Joro spider is common to several parts of Asia , though it holds special significance in Japan , being linked to the mythical shape-shifting creature jorogumo.
Joro spiders are one of many spider species known to engage in something called ballooning, meaning they will sometimes use their webs to ride the winds miles away from their original location.
This allows them to quickly settle into new territory, provided the conditions are suitable.
