[QUOTE="Star*, post: 441230, member: 4964"] FWIW? If I saw that georgeous tarantula crawling across my (okay start over) DAISY? YOU are not the strange one here. I'll glady take the first prize for this one. (grabs trophy) Starts over. FWIW? If that georgeous tarantula crawled across my table in a restaurant? I would be THRILLED to pieces. First off? It would be about the size of the palm of your hand or smaller at best. Secondly - NOT knowing if it would be aggrivated and bite? With any upset it wouldn't be a great idea to attempt to pick any spider up bare handed unless you knew a great deal about spiders/arachnids. That particular one? Could deliver a really nasty bite, but doubtful that it would under calm circumstances. It can flick hairs that irritate skin but probably would not. Would I reach out to get it? Yes. Would I be fine and calm with it? Yes. Would I be fine with most snakes? Yes. Would I reach for ANY snake? No. Cautious, but not stupid. Our house follows a simple rule of no killing of anything - including and ESPECIALLY spiders. We have a carry case that we catch and release spiders in our woods. We've got one right now that is about the size of a mans hand running around in the den. DF calls him Aragorn (harry potter movie) and he's a dandy. He's in the Wolf Spider family, haven't seen him close enough to tell if he's really a wolf or possibly a fishing spider. (more than likely at that size that's what he is) But soon we'll catch him and take him to the woods and let him go. But how cool would that be to have a tarantula join you for lunch?
