Even 8-legged creatures need a hand sometimes. Secretive
and elusive by nature, tarantulas and other spiders are among the most
misunderstood and maligned fauna on the planet.

Most people don’t realize that wildlife trafficking can affect all taxa, including arachnids and other invertebrates. See how we’re saving spiders from wildlife trafficking at the Arachnid Rescue Center: http://bit.ly/ARCznz

Whenever I go to the SD Zoo, I always check their tarantulas! There are some in the nursery, one in the bug house and one in elephant odyssey!
