Red-rumped Tarantula

Brachypelma vagans

We encountered these handsome tarantulas in Belize. In one of the photos you will see a laser pen that is about 7 inches long and laid next to one individual. This will give you an idea as to the large size of these spiders.

Great job, Ann. If you pet one and rub your eye, the barbed fibers hook into the cornea, and work their way deeper until they go all the way through. V
