Spiders often have good camouflage, and many of the wandering hunter species hunt at night when big predators can't see them. Many spiders build a retreat of silk to hide in too. Some are quick runners, and will just run away if they can. These may use their silk as a safety line, jumping off into the air with a silk thread attached so they don't fall.
