The Desert Tarantula is the largest spider in the world.
They are portrayed in movies as dangerous, but are not
really dangerous to humans. The Desert Tarantula
spends most of their lives underground in burrows.
They eat by sitting at the entrance of their burrows
at night and wait for insects or small animals to wander
to close. The Desert Tarantulas are most often seen
when mating , because they come out of their burrows
looking for adult females. Males live to be ten to
eleven years old. Females live to be twenty-five
years old and older. The females lay eggs several
times during their lives.
