I've been reading, researching and basically obsessing over tarantulas for the last couple of weeks now. I'm trying to learn more about all the species I don't know. I keep seeing many different species, from many different genus' all referred to as "baboon" spiders. What makes it a baboon spider? OBT, king baboon, golden blue leg baboon, etc… These are all very different spiders, but are somehow grouped into this common name of baboon spiders.
What is the criterion for a tarantula to be labeled as a baboon spider?
