Interesting Facts About Black Tarantula
Here are some interesting facts about Black Tarantula:
Black Tarantula Habitat
The black tarantula is primarily found in the grassland regions of Brazil and Uruguay, where it thrives in its natural habitat.
When kept in captivity, this particular tarantula species necessitates a slightly drier environment in comparison to its counterparts within the same genus. Adequate ventilation is also essential to ensure the well-being of the black tarantula in captivity.
Further, the Brazilian black tarantula possesses a defensive mechanism of flicking its urticating hairs when provoked. Although venomous, this spider's venom is relatively mild in potency.
How Big Can a Black Tarantula Get?
Tarantulas have the potential to attain significant sizes. For instance, the Grand Canyon black tarantula can grow up to 4 inches (10cm) in length, measuring from leg tip to leg tip. However, the title for the largest species of tarantula goes to the goliath bird-eating spider (Theraphosa blondi) found in South America. This impressive arachnid can reach an astonishing span of up to 11 inches (28cm) from leg tip to leg tip.
