The things you see on social media...

Saw this tonight on IG and it got me worked up. I wish people researched more before getting a tarantula. To make it worse, the video was edited and played club music in the background; almost as if was made to be a "funny" video. I messaged the guy about the video and told him to add more substrate. Not in a condescending tone, out of pure concern for the tarantula.

People on social media make handling videos all the time too . Ontop of bad cages with too little room or substrate.

I used to sell quite a few T's on Facebook groups, this is the reason I stopped, didn't matter what you told the person care wise they wanted to do it there way, and would send pics like this saying they were fine.

I don't go on Reddit tarantulas or Facebook groups anymore. I need to watch my blood pressure.
