Does anyone know the name of the spider being imported under this name? Very tarantula looking (dwarfish), but makes a funnel / trapdoor like web?? I can load some pics later if needed.. _________________ Reptile Rescue Orange County

Now these aren't tarantulas, even though they look like them and behave like them right?? I see they are also called "trapdoor baboon spiders"??? Thanks Kevin _________________ Reptile Rescue Orange County

There may be people who like centipedes. I have seen people handling tarantulas and scorpions, but never a centipede handler. I would regard such a person with deep suspicion...Now what sort of man or woman or monster would stroke a centipede on its underbelly "And here is my big good centipede." If such a man exists, I say kill him without more ado. He is a traitor to the human race.
