How to handle tarantulas

here is my vid on handling tarantulas. it is a basic video on which methods you can use to handle a tarantula. it is clearly stated that some of the methods are ineffective if you are dealing with a more aggressive specie. i hope this is helpful to some of the beginners in the hobby.

I have had tarantulas for many years now and the way you abuse her is disgusting you should NEVER pick up a tarantula manualy like you did, I hope you get bit so fucking badly that your tendons snap and you cant use your hands.

@jamiearid hahaha okay mister activist. tarantula do not even have brains so they do not experience this as traumatizing. i suggested this because some people do enjoy handling more docile specimens. i provide safe tips that minimize the risk of any accident that could harm the tarantula. whenever i pick up my tarantulas with these methods, they don't show signs of distress when i drop them. you're perception on this is hazed by your need to make things mammal like and react the way they would.

@jamiearid Well I'm sure if the spider had a problem with what he was doing, he would have reacted in due course. Infact it seemed very docile.

@tartantulakid666 well your correct. cnidarians and other organisms have an advanced network of nerves. I didn't feel like explaining but it works alot like a brain, aiding in hunting and other functions. I just didn't want to go into detail plus I didn't think people would understand what im saying. but you are correct, however arachnids do have brains, actual brains haha

@The1337gamerguy1 i would like a source that can aid in this disagreement because i understood that tarantulas function under a central nervous system that is not a brain but can indeed carry more complex functions such as sight, enhanced awareness and those things. but anyways have a good evening

[tartantulakid666]

@lb4liife I am going to have to disagree with you. jellyfish according to my multiple sources do not have a brain but simple networks of nerves that can help carry out basic paristalsic (bad spelling) movements that aid in their propulsion and prey consumption. i am curious on this matter so if you have a source or research that can convince me other wise, please send it to me

@tartantulakid666 Im studying biology and getting my major, I want you too know coming from someone who has done countless disections that jelly fish and other cnidarians do have brains as well as animals from the platyhelmenthes phylum which would include your worm. also arachnids (T's) do have brains and have proven personatlies. nothing comparable to humans or larger animals, because they are small thus their brain capacity is small. cheers.

[tartantulakid666]

@The1337gamerguy1 wow. i am guessing you never took middle school biology. most of the life on this planet do not have brains. Plants, funghi, bacteria, and even animals. jellyfish do not have brains, worms do not have brains either. i could list more but i believe that your attempt to insult me has just been shattered. please reconsider your attempt to mock by getting your facts straight little boy

I hate every other spider except tarantulas
