Grammostola rosea This beautiful arachnid gets its name from the pinkish rose colored hairs on its prosoma. The body is covered with hairs which are extra-sensory devices for spiders, helping them to sense vibrations, grip when climbing, or to irritate something (or someone) that has harassed them. While all tarantulas have venom, contrary to popular belief, it is almost never dangerous to humans. They can also live as long as 20 years! |
