When I was at this location I didn't see any Ts unfortunately, I did see iguanas.

Some of you T owners need to listen to this video. The woman's voice starts at around 2:19. What she says is more important than what you will see. The type burrow made based on the habitat is important, and falls in line with some of @AphonopelmaTX observations of another species not long ago.

Also, check out the T walking on snow. I think too many people have a monolithic idea of what some species are exposed to in the wild.

And for a while I thought you didn't like YouTube.

You clearly haven't read all my posts. I specifically mentioned RECENTLY that stupidtube is good for about 3 things for me: examining speed of species, seeing what a new species looks like if there's no other source, and my absolute favorite - examining animals in their natural environment.

I've been citing a stupidtube video for MANY years of an Avic swimming for all those that think Ts will sink like rocks. My man what am I going to do with you. You know more about COVID than Ts now it seems. :wacky:


Jumbie you need to up your game:rofl::stop::wacky:

Informative video. I just wish he didn't feel the need to handle it.
Same

I've talked to him about the handling. I get why he does it, he has good intentions behind it. However, it gives people the wrong impression.


Now people will keep them bone dry because mexico is a desert :troll:
Whoa dude, I'm going to keep my Ts on snow from the mountains of Tibet, hand scooped by virgins.

That's the spirit I want to see in this forum 😂😂😂😂

I like Martins videos, they are very informative and also show their real habitats. I like Guy Tansley's ones too but the mania he has about using the finger to lure them or to push them out makes me nervous hahahahahaha. I supose that he does it to show people that the Ts are not those agressive animals that "everybody" believes they are.

I like this video where he explains how with few simple things you can create a rainforest enclosure perfectly suitable for species that usually are kept bone dry and in incorrect substrates.

I can not watch the video because it comes on with a screen of distorted colors but i can hear them talking.

I was looking for a Tliltocatl epicureanum in the beginning of 2020 and no one had one for sale anywhere.

What attracted me to them was the overall temperament compared to a T. vagans. Basically almost identical in appearance but much more docile than a psycho vagans.

I have now found one vendor selling them again.

I really enjoy videos of tarantulas in their natural habitats. Very cool. They're a really pretty species.
