Tarantula venom is not highly toxic to humans. | Tarantulas have 8 eyes. | The female tarantula carried her eggs in a silk cocoon attached to her body. | It can take up to 10 years for a tarantula to fully mature. |
Tarantulas eat insects, others spiders and sometimes small animals such as frogs and lizards. | Tarantulas can be found in Central and South America, Southern Asia, Africa, and Australia. | A tarantula catches its prey, bites it, injects it with poison, and then eats it. | Tarantulas ‘throw’ their hair as a defence. The hair can irritate eyes or skin. |
Predators of the tarantula are raccoons, birds, lizards, frogs, skunks. | Some people eat tarantulas. | The tantatula does not spin a web. | Their bodies are covered in tiny hairs. |

Perfect tool for writing on the fly
I walked abroad
Like a red-faced farmer.
A frog jumps into the pond,
But his daughter, named Nan,
Ran away with a man
The stars go waltzing out in blue and red,
And blesséd are their days.
Now the flowers are all folded,
And the dark is going by.
I looked for you by the front door
But still he lingered near
