Δύναμη δηλητηρίου

Δαγκώματα

Το δηλητήριο βγαίνει από τα δόντια του όταν δαγκώνει.

Τι κάνει το δηλητήριό του όταν δαγκώνει ή τσιμπάει;

The venom is not considered medically significant. Because this tarantula is large, its bite can still cause tissue damage. It bites mainly when provoked, and it defends itself first with urticating hairs, which are fine hairs that irritate human skin.1

Πόσο επικίνδυνο είναι για τους ανθρώπους;

Its venom is not considered medically significant, but its large size means a bite can cause tissue damage. Its urticating hairs can also be quite irritating to human skin.1

Τι κάνει όταν φοβάται;

It is usually somewhat defensive and flicks urticating hairs at threats. Biting is typically not its first line of defence.1
