Iinyaniso

1

Females of this species may eat males after mating, a behaviour called sexual cannibalism.1

2

Its urticating hairs, which can irritate skin, are released by direct contact rather than being kicked into the air.1

3

Adult males live about 2 to 3 years, while females live about 6 to 9 years.1

4

In captivity, the spider can build nests and tunnels using nearby debris when its enclosure is enriched.1

5

Mature males have a pair of hooks on the last segment of their pedipalps, which they use to build sperm webs and during courtship.1

Umqhekezi weentsomi

Intsomi: Pinktoe tarantulas need high humidity to survive.

Inyaniso: Outdated advice says they need high humidity, but in captivity they should be kept on dry substrate with a water dish. Too much moisture and stagnant air can be fatal to them.1
