Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

Nevarnost za ljudi: BlagaKot čebelji pik ali manj. Za ljudi praktično neškodljiva.

Bites are generally not a serious harm to humans, except in the case of an allergic reaction. Because the fangs are large, the puncture wound can be painful and can become infected if not treated properly.1

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

When disturbed, it rises onto its hind legs, raises its front legs in a threatening pose, and kicks small, coarse urticating hairs from its abdomen towards the threat.1

Če ugrizne

  • Bite wounds should be treated properly to prevent secondary infection. Seek care if an allergic reaction occurs.1
  • Ugriz umij in ohladi. Poišči zdravniško pomoč, če je bolečina močna ali se poškodovanec slabo počuti.

Vedno najprej pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911). To so splošna navodila za prvo pomoč, ne zdravniški nasvet. Osnove prve pomoči

Ostani varen

  • Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
  • Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
  • Če te ugrizne: ostani miren, ne premikaj se, pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911) ali hitro pojdi v bolnišnico. Zapomni si, kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaga.

Ne preži nate. Strup uporablja, da ulovi hrano ali se zaščiti, in se veliko raje skrije. Več o varnosti

Dejstva

1

Narrow-mouthed toads have been seen sharing the tarantula's burrow. The toads gain protection from snakes and eat small invertebrates there, but they ignore newly hatched spiderlings.1

2

This species is the main prey of the tarantula hawk wasp (Pepsis grossa) in areas where the two overlap.1

3

Males travel looking for females, usually in the fall, and have been recorded travelling as far as 1.7 km.1

4

Newly hatched spiderlings often stay with their mother for several days before they disperse to build their own burrows.1

5

Males usually live little more than a year after they mature.1

A female can lay between about 200 and 1,000 eggs in a hammock-shaped web inside her burrow, and she guards them. The eggs hatch in 45 to 60 days, and the spiderlings often stay with the female for several days before leaving to make their own burrows.1
