The orange baboon tarantula is a large, nocturnal spider, so it is most active at night. It lives in parts of Africa, including Angola, central and southern Africa and the island of Zanzibar. Its bite is not known to be deadly, but it is very painful, so it should be left alone.1

Females dig a burrow or move into an existing abandoned one. Adults need a deep layer of soil in captivity, and they are mostly met in the pet trade, where they are popular but not common in pet stores.1
