Arboreals in Terrestrial Setup?

[Serpyderpy]

When it comes to tarantulas in big name captivity it only ever seems as if zoos can get it right. Well, at least, functioning and successful zoos, as I know some zoos are quite disgusting in actuality. Over here, in the UK, one of my favourite places to go is a massive aquarium called the Deep. Apart from aquatic animals, sharks and a whole bunch of other things, they have smaller enclosures for critters like snails, frogs and, of course, there was a tarantula. I couldn't recall what species it was, but considering it was sat in a webbed burrow, looking plump and very vibrant in colour with a water source visible, in the dark so it wouldn't be disturbed with very small viewing windows and a butt-load of sub, I would say it was quite content and well looked after. You know it's bad when an aquarium, not even focused on tarantulas, can do better than a department of science in a museum!

If that were me, I'd smuggle those poor buggers out of there. Though I guess the act of saving a tarantula from a crappy life isn't such a convincing statement to the feds as, say, breaking open a window to save a dog from a hot car.
