Gifkrag

Byte

Gif kom deur sy giftande of tande uit wanneer dit byt.

Wat doen sy gif as dit byt of steek?

The venom is weak to humans. The bite is painful, and the fangs, which can be up to 2.5 cm long, can penetrate human skin. Some sites claim the bite is similar to a cat bite, but this is not confirmed.1

Hoe gevaarlik is dit vir mense?

Gevaar vir mense: LigSoos 'n bysteek of minder. Basies onskadelik vir mense.

A bite is mechanically dangerous because of the fangs, but it is not medically significant. The tarantula bites only when provoked, and only as a last resort. Its urticating hairs can cause mild to severe skin irritation. Handling can also seriously injure or kill the tarantula, because a fall of more than a few inches can rupture its abdomen.1

Wat doen dit as dit bang is?

When threatened, it raises its legs and the front of its body to deter predators, flicks irritating urticating hairs from its abdomen, and only bites if the attack continues.1

As dit byt

Was die byt en koel dit af. Kry mediese hulp as die pyn erg is of die persoon sleg voel.

Bel altyd eers jou noodnommer (112, 000, 911). Dit is algemene noodhulpraad, nie mediese advies nie. Noodhulp-basiese beginsels

Bly veilig

Moet nooit aan 'n wilde dier raak, dit vang of terg nie, selfs nie 'n kleintjie nie, en selfs nie as dit lyk of dit slaap of dood is nie.
Gee dit spasie. As jy een raakloop, bly kalm, stap stadig terug en laat dit sy eie pad gaan.
As een jou byt: bly kalm, bly stil, bel jou noodnommer (112, 000, 911) of kom vinnig by 'n hospitaal uit. Onthou hoe dit gelyk het, 'n foto help.

Dit is nie uit om jou te kry nie. Dit gebruik sy gif om kos te vang of om homself te beskerm, en kruip baie eerder weg. Meer oor veilig bly

Feite

Males must hook back the female's fangs during mating, and slow males risk being eaten by the female.1

It is considered the fourth largest tarantula in the world, behind the three species in the genus Theraphosa.1

Before moulting, it lies on its back and forces itself out of its old skin, and it stops eating a few days beforehand.1

Males deposit sperm onto a webbed mat, called a sperm web, before finding a female.1

Mite-breker

Mite: Brazilian salmon pink tarantulas are bird-eaters.

Waarheid: There is very little evidence that they catch and eat birds. In the wild they mainly eat large insects and sometimes amphibians and small reptiles.1
