My P. Miranda is super laid back. I can open the enclosure and do maintenance and he won't budge at all. He's been a great eater though and has given me some great take downs. I've never seen a threat pose, never really bolts either, just kind of moves away a few inches if I accidentally breathe on him while cleaning out a bolus or something. Once some water ended up splashing out of the dish and hitting him and he kind of flailed a leg or two but didnt move from his spot.
I second this , mine are skittish not ever seen a threat pose.
No guarantees any T will be docile, the speed of old worlds is often what is worse. Most will run before biting but not all, I always see threats from obt when filling water.
