Tarantula

Aphonopelma spp.

Description:

A young tarantula found it's way into the house yesterday & it's a good thing the cats didn't see it. We gently escorted it outside & took a photo.

Habitat:

Notes:

It's more than a little disconcerting to find one of these strolling around your living room. My advice is to keep your front door shut during heat wave weather if you live in an area with tarantulas (!).
