The golden blue-legged baboon spider is a tarantula with a bright yellow or orange body and metallic blue legs. It lives in South Africa, and it is prized by tarantula keepers in Europe and America. Its venom is medically significant, so it is best admired from a distance.1

This spider has medically significant venom, though little information exists about its strength. It is described as skittish rather than defensive, which is unusual given that its venom is medically significant.1

It is skittish rather than defensive, and it is incredibly fast.1
