Generally, tarantulas respond to daily handling. They crawl freely when placed on an arm or shoulder, but they definitely are not a pet that an owner can cuddle. Tarantulas are very timid and bite only when provoked.
If
you are, it
can be fatal. Although there is no documented case of a fatal
tarantula bite, some of the spiders have more potent venom than others, and there is no anti-venom, so
you treat the symptoms - benadryl, for instance, just like with a
bee sting - and hope for the best.
Tarantulas give some people the creeps because of their large, hairy bodies and legs. But these spiders are harmless to humans (except for a painful bite), and their mild venom is weaker than a typical bee's. Among arachnid enthusiasts, these spiders have become popular pets.
Mature males have a hook on the underside of their front leg. These hooks keep the female's fangs away from the male during mating. Mature males also have bulbs on their pedipalps, the two shorter, leg-like feelers located near their fangs. These bulbs are the male spider's sex organs.
Tarantulas' personality determines whether they copulate with males or cannibalize them. ... After copulating with a male, female spiders tend to practice sexual cannibalism, that is to say, they attack the males and eat them.
