These arid lands arachnids are often called camel spiders or sunspiders, but I like the name windscorpions best. They move with lightning speed across the desert flats, hunting prey and making them almost impossible to catch. They are challenging pets to keep alive in captivity needing more humidity than people suspect and frequent feedings as a result of their apparently quick metabolisms. This particular specimen has a three inch legspan!
