Cameroon red baboon spider
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
Indlela yokusibona
- Colour ranges from dull black or grey to rusty orange-brown.1
- Freshly moulted spiders are black, and they turn brown just before a moult.1
- Hairy legs, with an oval abdomen up to 10 cm across.1
- Leg span can reach 20 cm.1
- Small, weak eyes that can only judge light levels.1
Ivamise ukudidaniswa ne: Many hairy tarantulas from North and South America can shed urticating hairs, which are barbed and can cause severe itching. This species is an Old World tarantula and does not have these hairs on its abdomen.1
Amandla obuthi
Ubuthi buphuma ngamazinyo aso obuthi noma ngamazinyo uma siluma.
Ubuthi baso benzani?
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
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?
Ingozi ebantwini: KubuhlunguKungaba buhlungu ngempela, kodwa cishe akukaze kube kubi kakhulu.The venom is not considered medically significant. The spider will bite humans if provoked, but its main defence is to run away.1
Senzani uma sesabile?
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
Uma siluma
- Geza inxeba lokulunywa bese ulipholisa. Thola usizo lwezokwelapha uma ubuhlungu bunamandla noma umuntu ezizwa engaphilile.
Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala
Hlala uphephile
- Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
- Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
- Uma sikuluma: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.
Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso
It is one of the only spiders known to swim, and it will sometimes dive to catch fish.1
Most spiderlings kill each other for food, but some have been found sharing food with their siblings.1
Its fangs point downwards and work like pickaxes rather than pincers.1
During a moult it lies on its back, weak and dehydrated, and is very vulnerable to animals that would normally be its prey.1
After moulting it avoids eating for about a week so its new fangs can harden.1
It does not spin webs. It spins only a little silk, used for egg sacs and to line its burrows.1
Umqothuli wezinganekwane
Inganekwane: Baboon spiders spin webs to catch their prey.
Iqiniso: They do not make webs. They hunt at night and take whatever prey they find.1
