My daughter Alice holding a tarantula on her hands during a field trip in the state of Veracruz. She says "me duele"; it hurts me, because of the scratchy legs. She loves tarantulas (she kept asking if we could take them home).
edit: This specimen was found between a vertical stack of roof tiles (I was looking for scorpions) to the edge of the field you see in the video. Stack was put back in its original position as good as possible, and the tarantula was released next to it. I found a smaller specimen, same species, under a few horizontal roof tiles nearby.
edit: this species is, in my experience, very docile.
