Tarantula Plush Toy

Now you can safely snuggle your favorite wild animal! In this case it might be a little creepy though, because we're talking about a tarantula!

Tarantulas live in dry, well-drained soils in open areas throughout desert and grassland areas. They occur worldwide, but those in North America find their home in the southern and southwestern states. Many other species occur to the south throughout Mexico, Central and South America. Tarantulas are very sensitive to vibrations in the ground that may indicate the presence of prey or danger. They are equipped with urticating hairs on their abdomen which can be released by kicking with the back legs; these hairs irritate the nose and eyes of would-be attackers. But rest assured that this plush version will play more nicely.
