Ideas for Teachers Classroom and project ideas Spider Resources Books and links on spiders Tarantulas: Terrible or Terrific! Dr. Linda Rayor Tarantulas: Terrible or Terrific! Here are my views on the responsibilities and hazards of keeping tarantulas, along with some options in purchasing them. Responsibilities Hazards Choosing Your Pet Recommended Species ... Recommended Reading Responsibilities: Hazards: First, tarantulas are wild animals, not long domesticated pets. For example, I have 6 year old tarantulas that I have reared since they were in the egg sac. They have always been in captivity in cages in my office. I have always been gentle, slow moving, and treated them with care. But the species is active, aggressive, and fast. I would never even consider attempting to handle one - they have 3/4" fangs and a feisty nature! If I have to move my spiders to a new cage, I gently push them with long forceps, have capture cups nearby, and I am always cautious. Even calm species that are considered 'handleable' can get aggressive if they feel threatened. The other hazard of having tarantulas, instead of araneomorph spiders (like jumping spiders or orb weavers), is that they cost real money and there is no guarantee that they will survive. Recognize that your animal may not survive for a number of reasons: normal mortality while moulting, some spiders never thrive (especially spiderlings), your learning curve, cricket predation, or roommates who leave cages open... With care and good fortune, your tarantula will live for years, but it does not always happen that way.

66. Welcome To Giantspiders.com! Care information, articles and image gallery for tarantulas and other spiders. http://www.giantspiders.com

giantspiders.com (Updated 10th September 2005) This web site gives an all-round guide to the housing, feeding and general care of the worlds largest spiders - the theraphosids or tarantulas. Although focusing mainly on tarantulas, this site also offers an insight into the araneomorphs or 'true spiders' such as the wandering, huntsman, orb-web and wolf spiders. There is no doubt that the fascination for tarantulas is growing worldwide and as a result, they are becoming more and more popular as pets. Gone are the days when people were inexperienced in their care and as time goes by, more facts are being discovered - all helping to dispel the popular myth of tarantulas being "deadly killers!" The information contained on this site comes from over fifteen years of personal experience with tarantulas and I hope the facts about their care and the problems that can occur (although avoidable) proves beneficial to those who own, or are thinking of owning, one of these large and beautiful spiders. Articles and Gallery will be updated regularly and if you would like to contribute to these pages

biodiversity explorer Family: Theraphosidae (baboon spiders) (Phylum: Arthropoda , subphylum Chelicerata, class Arachnida, order Araneae, suborder Mygalomorpha) Harpactira baviana (male) Harpactira chrysogaster (female) Harpactira atra (male) Ceratogyrus sp.(photo by Dr. M Filmer, used with permission) (for larger images click on the image) African species are called baboon spiders due to their hairy appearance and the black scopulae pads on its "feet" resembling the pads on baboon feet. These spiders are often incorrectly referred to as Tarantulas , a name usurped by the American species from the European wolf spider (family Lycosidae Lycosa tarantula This family belongs to the suborder Mygalomorpha. This is a primitive spider group that some scientists believe should belong to its own order as, for example, the scorpions. These harmless giants are often negatively portrayed as villainous monsters especially in movie industry. They are not dangerous to man although they can inflict a painful bite. They are all mildly venemous, the venom being neurotoxic. However, the smaller species from the Western Cape, Harpactirella lightfooti is reputed to be dangerous to man although there is no evidence of this.

@import url("/stylesheets/spiders_adv.css"); Tarantulas - the truth behind their evil image Tarantulas are the movie stars of the spider world. They are cast in films when things hairy, scary and deadly are needed. But despite their appearance and reputation, bites from these spiders usually cause little harm. So how did they get such a bad reputation? The Tarantula story starts way back In 1370, in a small town called Taranto in southern Italy a strange and mysterious epidemic broke out for which the only cure seemed to be wild dancing and music. Occurring every summer for three hundred years, this disease was thought to be caused by the bite of a large, hairy Wolf Spider ( Lycosa tarantula ), which became known as a Tarantula. In the 1600s, people discovered that these spiders were virtually harmless. Many then concluded that the whole phenomenon of Tarantism was simply an excuse far a wild party. However, it is now suspected that a spider was involved and the real culprit was a European relative of the Redback or Widow Spider. As Europeans colonised the world, they saw even bigger and hairier spiders, and called them Tarantulas too. As a result, many large and hairy spiders are now commonly, but incorrectly, called Tarantulas. The only true Tarantulas are the large spiders of the family Theraphosidae. Some examples of spiders from this family include:

79. Australian Tarantulas The Australian tarantulas (also called whistling, barking or birdeating spiders) belong to four genera in the family Theraphosidae. http://www.amonline.net.au/factsheets/tarantula.htm

@import url("../stylesheets/explore_adv.css"); Fact sheets Back to Explore Back to Fact Sheets Australian tarantulas Family Theraphosidae Australian Tarantula The Australian tarantulas (also called whistling, barking or bird-eating spiders) belong to four genera, Selenocosmia (four described species), Selenotholus and Selenotypus (with one species each), and Phlogiellus (undescribed species) in the family Theraphosidae. They are often known as whistling or barking spiders because of the sounds most species can produce by rubbing rows of modified spines on the basal segments of their palps (front pair of limb-like sensory/mating organs) against opposing spines on their jaw bases (the stridulating organ). The whistling or humming noise is most readily produced when the spider is disturbed and takes up a threatening defensive pose - it may act as a deterrent against predators. Distribution The genus Selenocosmia is known from Queensland, New South Wales, South Australia and Western Australia. Selenocosmia stirlingi is the most southerly (reaching into north-western Victoria) and widely distributed species. It spans the continent in habitats ranging from rainforest to desert but is not found in the northern tropics. The species that is most often kept as a pet is often sold as
