    Fragile, innocent hairy eight legged creatures who did absolutely nothing wrong to have their natural environment destroyed. Truly beautiful but reality is absolutely heartbreaking.

    It would be great if a conservation effort can be made among the tarantula breeders who have these. Even if it was breed them, sell a quarter and release the captive breds back into their original habitats. That would help raise the supply without going into the wild to steal them, and then a continual supply would be sent back home so they have a better chance.

    • @birdspiders
      @birdspiders  2 роки тому +2

      that's a noble thought Alex, but that's not how conservation actually work - it's impossible to release captive stock back into the wild if they've not been raised within a closed laboratory from researchers where everything follows a certain health protocol. It is done by Mexican researchers and their local breeding program for tarantulas - so there is hope that one day local brazilian researchers can do the same for their spiders.

    Hello BirdspidersCH I am acquiring a T seledonia sling in a few short weeks. I have been doing research and would like to know more about where in Bahia they are found. From what I’ve read Bahia Brazil contains several kinds of terrains. I understand if you can’t reveal the exact locations to these endangered animals. were they found in dryer forest. Does it rain often in Bahia where they are from? I’d also love to know the names to those Trees they live in.
