Most definitely not lol! I really wish I had video of her meltdown. I have other Ornithoctoninae sp that are much more consistently defensive (like O. sp HCM DCF, an absolute terror) but this episode was just something else entirely. None of her feet had any purchase on the substrate. She was laying on her back, shaking back and forth waiting there with all 8 legs sticking straight up in the air ready to grab anything that came near with any of her tarsal claws and just nail it. This was past threat display, this was I'm going to tag ANYTHING I can grab.
