The Cameroon red baboon spider is a large tarantula that digs burrows at ground level in the rainforests of Cameroon, in West Africa. It is one of the few spiders that can swim, and it can make a loud velcro-like rasping sound to warn off threats.1

  • Freshly moulted spiders are black, and they turn brown just before a moult.1

  • Leg span can reach 20 cm.1

The venom is not medically significant to people. It may cause some nausea, and a person who is abnormally sensitive may need medical attention.1

The venom is not considered medically significant. The spider will bite humans if provoked, but its main defence is to run away.1

Lan lay def bu tiitee?

It rears up on its hind legs, smacks its front legs on the ground, and rubs leg pairs I and II together to make a sound like tearing velcro. It may also bite, but usually runs away.1

Xibaar

1

It is one of the only spiders known to swim, and it will sometimes dive to catch fish.1

2

Most spiderlings kill each other for food, but some have been found sharing food with their siblings.1

3

Its fangs point downwards and work like pickaxes rather than pincers.1

4

During a moult it lies on its back, weak and dehydrated, and is very vulnerable to animals that would normally be its prey.1

5

After moulting it avoids eating for about a week so its new fangs can harden.1

6

It does not spin webs. It spins only a little silk, used for egg sacs and to line its burrows.1

Tasukatu léeb

Xalaat bu juum: Baboon spiders spin webs to catch their prey.

Dëgg: They do not make webs. They hunt at night and take whatever prey they find.1
