I bred this male for about two months but a few days ago he died from a wound in the abdomen that I have no idea how he got it. I would have liked it to last until the end of the summer. :(
The photo is post-mortem.
Spider with herculean strength.

The real tarantula, while the ones we call that are the migali. :)
According to legend, the tarantula with its bite would cause hysterical fits. Popular tradition believes that some musicians were able, with music, to heal or at least soothe the state of "pizzicata". Through a playing, which could last even days, they tried to find the combination of vibrations with the notes of their instruments. Different instruments were used, in particular the tambourine. Even today, joking or reproachful expressions such as "Did the tarantula bite you?" are widespread, especially aimed at lively children or particularly restless people.
