The Mexican fireleg tarantula is a large, long-lived spider with bright orange and black colouring. It lives in dry scrubland in western Guerrero state, Mexico, where it hides in burrows. It is popular in the pet trade, which has put pressure on wild numbers.1

The spider is not particularly defensive. Its main defence is its urticating hairs, which it can flick when threatened. Some individuals may have a nervous temperament.1

When it feels threatened, it flicks urticating hairs at the attacker.1

Tarantulas of this genus are long-lived. Females may live about ten years after reaching maturity, while males usually live only up to a year after their final moult.1

2

It is commonly kept as a pet and is regarded as suitable for beginners, which has led to heavy collection from the wild.1

3

It is mostly active after dark, but can sometimes be active during the day, especially in the morning and evening.1

4

Adults moult at the end of the dry season, between November and June. Males then begin searching for mates.1

Listed on CITES Appendix II, which regulates international trade. Ongoing habitat destruction, illegal pet trade and high mortality before maturity are a considerable concern for its future.1
