And the spider of the day goes to...
















This guy!

This is Cyclosternum fasciatum, but that's a name that definitely doesn't roll of the tongue as easily as 'the Costa Rican Tiger Rump'. If you can't already tell, it's got that name from its stripey bright orange and black abdomen. These guys start out small, like every other spider out there does, but can grow to about four to five inches across in length. For a tarantula, that's not that big, but it's one of the largest in its family.

If kept as a pet, though, that stunning abdomen might not be on display that often- this is one tarantula that really likes to burrow. Of course, it doesn't spend all its time underground, but when it's not poking about it goes right back to hiding itself underneath a bit of earth. They're not the friendliest of tarantulas either, and there are far more docile species out there. While they definitely are kept as display pets, these tarantulas are not for the first time owner.

Costa Rican Tiger Rump shouldn't sound as cool as it does. Tiger rump. Tiger rump. It's fun to say.

OMG SQUUUEEEEEEE! Bush babies! So cute.

Thank you!
