  • 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

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

Umqothuli wezinganekwane

Inganekwane: Pinktoe tarantulas need high humidity to survive.
