I had a wild tarantula when I was a kid. gave me nightmares every night, lol. Eventually started losing its hair so we thought it was dieing and let it go. I might get me another one.

Its not really nature if they are trapped in a glass tank is it? Its like you being trapped in water with a great white shark.

Dont mean to sound stupid but they dont eat those things do they? I figured they just kill if they feel threatened. Big spider but that mouse is actually a big meal too. Not the same as a large snake "inhaling" a small animal. Seems like it would take a lifetime for that spider to eat that mouse. Hell it seemed like it was having a hard time killing it.
Them suckers are fast though. Gave me the chills. Worse than snakes.

Kinda weird how the tarantula just sat there for a while not doing anything, then finally was like "f' it, I'm taking Fiefel down!"

Hmm, not quite. You see, there aren't giants roaming the earth who could physically trap me with a shark. Humans > Mice. It's called the food chain, lol. :lol:

Actually they drink them--emulsify the insides and drink them like jamba juice. What I thought was cool was that the mouse never felt threatened. With snakes, when the snake is actually hunting them, the mouse kinda senses that its life is in danger and starts freaking out.
