  • Solar Eclipses are few and far between and we have heard a lot about how different animals may behave during the totality. But no one really discusses how spiders and other arachnids and insects may act once the moon has blocked the sun, plunging their environment into night in the middle of the day. Today we are going to discuss what strange behaviors you may witness from tarantulas, spiders, and many other arachnids, insects and invertebrates during the solar eclipse of 2024.

    Bees making a different noise during an eclipse is interesting. I wonder the purpose of it and if they're feeling worry or fear. Inscet behavior is a fascinating study.

    Cool.
    Hope everyone got their eclipse glasses. northeast PA should get about 95% totality this time.
    Nailed it! 😂

    @tarantulacollective, the music was so loud/quiet/horrible/distracting, that I now believe invertebrates will take over the world during the eclipse and become our benevolent overlords. Just kidding, thanks for all the interesting videos you do. You cover a lot of things like this that are not readily available anywhere else.

    It's crazy how animals react to this phenomenon. And us humans just find it fascinating. Oh what crazy world. Love your videos keep up the hard work.

      Thanks so much. I agree completely and probably spend way to much time finding and mixing music.

    I'm solar powered too, guess that's why I have tarantulas 🙂I'm sensitive to temps and light as well. I hate winter and the shorter days!!! Come on summer!!!!! 🙂 Excellent video Richard!!

  • @cannonade2389
    @cannonade2389 Před měsícem

    Very interesting that a lot of the changed behaviours only happen during totality. So I wonder if those species still behave normally during partial eclipses, since the moon won't completely block the sun. Really cool video!

  • @Mike-ly9qi
    @Mike-ly9qi Před měsícem

    I'm in South Central Kentucky so we will see how mine act. The one we had in 17 I couldn't tell you what they did because I was at work. That said,I've got a few Cyriopagopus albostriatus and an omothymus schioedtei that sit out no matter what. All different hours.

    When you say feed a tarantula 6-8 or crickets every other week or something like that are those 6-8 all in one meal or spread out across the week?

    Have you done any videos on the phormicticus species?
    I just got a sp. Purple and would have loved to found one from you or T-Kat. But only found one from Tom Moran.

    Please can someone shed light on my tarantula problem.
    My juvenile female suntiger molted 6 weeks ago.....all good...then 2 weeks later she's missing 2 front legs, and recently a back one has gone.....I just don't understand what's happening..

    Had a question which leaf litter would you recommend from the biodude? Does it matter which type for tarantulas?
