Description

The legendary ‘barker’ of the tarantula world! The Selenocosmia crassipes, or Australian Barking Spider, is a large, powerful Old World Fossorial (burrowing) species. This spider is famous for its unique ability to stridulate (make a ‘barking’ or hissing sound) when threatened, a truly rare behaviour in the hobby. As a heavy-bodied, fast, and highly defensive species with potent venom, it is strictly reserved for advanced keepers who understand safe handling and containment procedures. Secure your healthy, captive-bred S. crassipes spiderling today and set up its deep burrow!
