sorry dude, Tarantulas get theirname from a dance in Italy, when people got bitten by the wolf spider your mention they would perom a dance called the
tatatella to sweat out the poision
If I could subsribe only one channel, it would be Tarantula Collective, 1000%
One more crazy thing about T´s is that they can mutate and get additionally organs (Apparently)
I just found out that one of my home bred LP`s has 6 book lungs.
Little known fact: Those who love tarantulas are the most elite humans on the planet and have the best taste in hobbies.
Can't argue with that
100% agree
Spot on 😎
Good one bro +++ :D
This is the best compliment I've ever received, thank you
The feet web may explain why they do the happy dance.
I’ve had severe arachnophobia but have been working for the past 5 years to over come it. I currently own and affectionately care for 2 jumping spiders! I’ve been doing a lot of research on Ts and I’m ready to over come my final hill and own a tarantula! I just found your Chanel and I love your content!
I just got a Curly Hair T sling! It’s the cutest
@@psyduck2747 I bought a curly hair in august as the final step of dealing with arachnofobia 🙂
Same! 😀 I am saving up for the Carabena Versacolor and have a Phidippus Regius currently
@@psyduck2747 how is its care been since you go it
@@CrystalMouse1versicolor is fast right?
I'm suprised you didn't talk about the Tarantella dance!
In the same part of Italy that the "tarantula" wolf spiders come from, superstition led people to believe that a bite from these spiders gave you a condition called "tarantism," a kind of mania. The reccomended treatment for this condition was to perform the tarantella dance! This would supposedly make the affliction leave the body. It was perhaps used as an excuse for emotional release since the society was pretty repressed at that time.
The term refers to a few different styles of dance, and you can even watch people doing the tarantella on UA-cam if you want! It's pretty entertaining.
Great video! One fact people aren’t aware of is that tarantulas are exceptionally clean animals. They groom themselves after every meal (at least mine do) and at least once a day, whether they eat or not. Further this grooming is very similar to the way a cat will groom itself. Further after finishing with a moult they always remove the exoskeleton from their burrow/arboreal hide, or web over it as though burying it ‘in the walls’. Also they never leave uneaten prey items in their burrows, and regularly will ‘re-web’ the insides of their homes.
I don't have a tarantula, but I do have a female Jumper. She cleans herself constantly. Every time she eats, drinks, or just because, she'll bathe herself for over an hour lol.
Here's one : While tarantulas gained popularity as pets during the '70s and '80s, they were first considered as pets since the late 1910s/early 1920s !
William J. Baerg, a college professor from the University of Arkansas, was the very first to treat them as pets. It is thanks to him that knowledge about tarantulas became eventually available. From 1918 to 1958, he studied a local population of Aphonopelma hentzi.
He also traveled to Mexico, Honduras and Trinidad, collected specimens for study. He also allowed himself to be bitten or stung by Black Widows, Scorpions and Centipedes, so he could research the effects of their venom on people. Crazy, huh ?!
All this is found in his book, The Tarantula, published way back in 1958. You're not going to find the original prints, but reprints are occasionally available. Definitely worth getting and reading.
Stay safe and thanks for sharing :)
That's really informative. Thanks for the info
now that's a pleasant surprise by youtube, the notifcation finally work for one time
it is a freaking miracle...lol
This is actually so funny earlier today i had a biology exam and one of the question had to do with the tarantule sharing it's borow with the frog.
3:31 haha that cricket though it went weee
Fact number 8 is my favorite one; tarantulas keeping frogs in their burrows is fascinating and sounds like it would make for an excellent children’s book idea. Thanks for teaching us these cool T facts!
Always happy to potentially learn something, anyway got to love a TTC Top 10. 🕷️
Tarantulas can regenerate limbs and even drop them during stress "getting hung up/caught on something" or during a bad molt when a limb gets stuck during the process. Typically it will take 2 molts to fully regenerate the limb back to a state where its not even noticeable that it was ever gone.
I think that's "daddy long legs".
Richard: "Researchers recently discovered that tarantulas can actually spin silk from their feet!"
Me: 👀🤯
Spiders are freaking metal, and I luv 'em
Perfect way to brighten my gloomy day...anything tarantula related 🥰
Any chance you're going to make an "evolution of tarantulas" type video? I think it would be amazing to see something like that
I've been extremely arachnophobic for most of my life, but I am working on overcoming my fear and finding a new admiration for these amazing creatures. I'm a writer and needlecrafter, enjoying crocheting, knitting, needlework, and sewing, and they make beautiful webs and make their own yarn. How fascinating! I don't know if I will ever bring one into my home, but if I do, your channel has been tremendously informative and helpful. Thank you for sharing your expertise. I really enjoy your videos!
6:50 Those pink toe footsies at were the cutest things I've seen today.

So cool!!!
Anyone else see the crickets going flying at 3:28? I love that clip.
I love these educational videos!
This is a great list! I find their eight little toe beans so fascinating.
01:02 A common misconception was that _Lycosa tarantula_ was highly venomous, and its bite caused a hysterical condition known as "tarantism." This has been attributed to the origin of the tarantella dance from southern Italy.
Man I would love too see more of these😉
I don’t know how I missed this video but new fave
Wow! I knew they had little claws but I didn't know they were retractable. That was an amazing close up shot. 🖤
Best. Video. Everrrrr!
Tarantella is the name of a chaotic, fast spinning dance, from the southern Italian town of Taranto. The dance mimics the actions of the locally found wolf spider named "Tarantula".
This was magic. I jumped ahead for this one. I popped up on my feed. Only a few hundred to go.
Mera apko full support rahegha Dil se ❤️you are great bro ❤️
Awesome shirt! I think I have about as many Ramones shirts as I have tarantula shirts haha
Absolutely fascinating! I admire all the extraordinary colours of tarantulas.And I love your tarantula merchandise, I like the artwork with the skull,that’s why I will order a tank top and a hoodie!🕷💀👍🏻
Loving the music!
So glad I saw the notification, new and exciting information, Richard. Very sad that some tarantulas are now on the endangered species list because of farming or deforestation 😔😔😔
"adult tarantulas have been observed going many years without food"
So people just out here starving tarantulas. Got it 👍🏽😂
8:19 lol Richard 😂
Wow that was interesting
Hello great video information Richard
Thanks for watching
Cool!
3:29 cricket is like "peace out"

Awsome vid.. web from there feet wow
You have great t shirt. I love my new shirt. Thanks
I drove a Garbage Truck in Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks for years. My understanding of Hydraulics is similar to your Garden variety Tarantula. It’s very efficient way of moving things.
Thank you.
That ramones shirt though ❤️
I love the intro music
Hope the new room is coming along well.
Awesome video about tarantulas, I learned so much about these beautiful spiders! Silly question, but do tarantulas drink water the same way they "drink" their prey? I subbed and left a like!
I have 2 bonnetina minaxes that I got together as lil spederlings . They don't fight they just have 2 different borrows on opposite side of the enclosure. But I've never had any reason to split them up..
Thank you for the info! I have a pink toe, she's my third tarantula in 21 years.
Cool video i ve got a geniculata for some time and i am enjoying all about this hobby with this and Other Channels like lobo exóticos and the dark den greetings from brazil
I love Tarantulas
I LOVE the information about the toxins being used in research! This video is fabulous!!! I wish I knew about what toxins are in the venom and which spiders have what toxins! Such a pharmacological gold mine! Also, how do they extract the venom?!? You don’t have to answer my questions, I’m just saying I love your videos and they inspire me to want to know more! 😄
They gas the tarantula with CO2 to calm it down, then stimulate the fangs over a vial. Depending on the venom type they sometimes have to have a mini suction device to extract the digestive vomit away from the venom.
“Some tarantulas live together”
Me asf: haha Mirkwood spiders Shelob and Ungoliant go brrrrrrrr (LOTR Reference)
Can you do a video or piece on the happy dance after the Tarantula catches it's prey, it's so cute 🥰🕷️
I subbed just cos of ur tshirt
Rock on!
Great in-depth video / curiosity! One question, what species would it be at 7:39?
I learned about hemolyph in zoology during my associates degree. It's amazing how they work! I still have an irrational fear of spiders, but I learned a bit about them.
ang galing
Some I knew, and some I didn't. I love hearing facts. I own cats as well as tarantulas. Cats have many hairs which are sensitive to detect the environment they are in also, and if they can squeeze into compact areas. ( Just glad the don't climb glass, and they don't get into the tarantula room)
