[QUOTE="m0lsx, post: 230924, member: 29323"] I have a couple of Selenocosmia crassipes, which are Barking Spiders or Whistling spiders & which come from Australia. Their venom is very potent on dogs & has been known to kill an Australian Shepherd dog is as little as 45 minutes. But it's venom is no worse on a human than any other tarantulas. My crassipies are fairly chilled & much prefer running for cover at the first sign of human movement than threatening us. They are a gorgeous silky brown colour, are often out on show. I keep mine in deep substrate, as both are prolific burrowers. [/QUOTE]
