After an interesting conversation with a friend, we are wondering how tarantulas exactly mate in the wild.
It seems like a male somehow knows a female of the same species. How do you think that is?
Do you think in the wild they actually mistake other species and fail at reproducing? Or maybe the female knows the tapping pattern of the male down so well (probably why they eat them so quick because why not)?
It is still impressive that they just instantly understand what to do. What are your thoughts?
