If you were a tarantula, which species would you be and why?

[Minty]

Just for fun.

I'd be a Brachypelma emilia, I've got orange hair, I'm slow moving and I have a big butt.

 

[Enrgy]

Maybe some fossorial lol I’m quite the introvert

 

[antinous]

Phormictopus. Fast growing, colorful, large, and they eat everything, with a ‘I hate the world, especially you’ kind of attitude (just like me!)

 

[Chris LXXIX]

I'm already a 'Tarantula' because when I eat like 'Gargantua', drinking obviously too much Italian red wine as well (and in general those dinners end with a nice bottle of liquor also, btw) I do crumble in my bed in a complete pre molt state

 

[CJJon]

I'd be a mutt. Probably A. geniculata x C. versicolor.

 

[KezyGLA]

This thread has been done before. But hey.

Heteroscodra maculata.

Like climbing trees
Would have to be an African species
Shy but will fight
Happy to land you in ER if you piss me off
Monotone

 

[Glorious Baboon]

Chilobrachys Kaeng Krachan cause mines like cheap toilet paper it don’t take **** from no one

This thread has been done before. But hey.

Sorry, I was unbelievably bored at work today. Lol

 

[Luka98]

Definitely a fast arboreal like a Poecilotheria, you guys are forgetting that if you were a tarantula you'd most likely co-habit an area with centipedes that would be larger than you. Those things give me the creeps in human form already so i want to bolt away as soon as i can.

 

[Teal]

I would be a Pterinochilus chordatus - Dark, mysterious, slightly curious, minds my own unless provoked then turns into a rabid wolverine.

 

[nicodimus22]

Pretty much any fossorial species. I'd like to retreat into my man cave and almost never come out.

 

[MintyWood826]

A fossorial, especially an OW fossorial. Hiding in a dark hole without the ability to get bored sounds nice.

 

[The Grym Reaper]

Lampropelma nigerrimum



I'd continue but I think I've made my point

 

[Cherri]

Pamphobeteus ultramarinus. I do 80s goth eyeliner like them. Or an OBT. I'm nervous and unnecessarily defensive towards people that mean me no harm. Or g. Porteri because I'm actually bipolar lol

 

[Rigor Mortis]

Less than shiny new thread to reply to but I'm exquisitely bored.

I'd probably be a GBB, I wear the most obnoxious colours and go out of my way to look like a clown.

 

[mantisfan101]

Sorry to bring back an old thread but I call the classic Grammastola rosea. I’m not really that sociable so I’m generally passive but I can also get really unpresictable and will flare up if somethingn annoys me for a while. Another would be a Monocentropus balfouri for the same reason.

 

[The Seraph]

A non-defensive Hysterocrates gigas. I try to be nothing but outwardly positive in real life but I am extremely skittish and I generally prefer to be locked away in a dark cupboard.

 

[Minty]

A Hysterocrates gigas with the temperament of a H. chilensis. I try to be nothing but outwardly positive in real life but I am extremely skittish and I generally prefer to be locked away in a dark cupboard.

Sounds kinky.

 

[SavageCritter]

Cyriocosmus elegans. A small, round homebody, ready for Halloween 24/7!

 

[Derivative]

Aphonopelma Marxi because I love the cold and they live in colder areas than most tarantulas
