Thank you so much for making this video. Tarantulas are truly intriguing creatures, and they're so misunderstood by the media that people fear them when they should be studying them..

Thanks for the video! I'm new to New Mexico and trying to learn about the new species in this beautiful state.

Thank you for putting the word out there that tarantulas are something to be wondered by, not feared.

I used to see them around here a lot when going hiking or in a stormy afternoon, but it’s been like four or five years since I have not seen any of those creatures around in Las Cruces, this year is yet more strange, no that many bunnies, less and less quails 🥺 I get afraid of how environment is changing.

I love spiders, and respect the venomous ones. As a girl teenager, I had one, and kept my thief brother out of my room =}

they look cute, but i'd rather not see them up close in real life, the hyper spider creeps me out :p

Common. How are those little eight-legged arachnids NOT cute with their iredicent colors and their fuzzyness I have 2 Chilean Rose Hairs and I think they are beautiful!
