The curlyhair Tarantula

The Curly Hair Tarantula (Tliltocatl albopilosus) is a fascinating, fluffy-looking spider native to Central America. Named after the curly hairs covering its body, this generally calm and slow-moving tarantula spends much of its time hiding in underground burrows. It feeds on insects and uses its sensitive hairs to detect movement around it.

Although venomous, its venom is not usually dangerous to humans. Females can live for over 20 years, making them one of the longer-living spiders! Despite their spooky appearance, these amazing creatures play an important role in controlling insect populations.
