Description

Happy New Year! First, we have a few species name changes to discuss. Then, we'll talk about four new tarantula species identified found in India's Western Ghat Mountains. After that, we have some listener comments from last week's episode.

Finally…

"How am I supposed to get experience with old world tarantula speed if I'm being told not to keep them?" The question of "experience" comes up quite a bit in hobby discussions. Can folks successfully keep tarantulas without having much first hand experience? Sure. But is first-hand experience vital to a tarantula keeper? Absolutely. In this video, we'll discuss the type of experience and why, in the end, hands-on experience is so important for the developing keeper.
