The Gooty sapphire tarantula is a large spider with bright blue hair, the only blue species in its genus. It lives in a small patch of forest in southern India, where it makes its home in holes in tall trees. It is critically endangered, so it is rare and needs protection.1

Hol ko tooke mum (ŋatol walla fiɗol) waɗata?

Its venom may cause intense pain, although this is judged from the experience of keepers bitten by other spiders in the genus. A bite may cause a rise in heart rate, followed by sweating, headache, stinging, cramping or swelling. These effects can last for up to a week.1

No human death from its bite has ever been recorded. Its bite is still considered medically significant. Most bites are dry bites, where no venom is injected. It can move quickly and may defend itself when cornered.1

Hol ko nde waɗata si nde hulii?

It is skittish and will try to flee first. It also flees from light, as it is sensitive to it. If provoked, it may bite.1

Its vivid blue colour comes from tiny structures in its hair that reflect light, so the colour shifts when viewed from different angles.1

Its adult fangs can reach nearly 3/4 of an inch (about 1.9 cm) in length.1

3

Females typically live for 11 to 12 years, and males live for 3 to 4 years.1
