The Tarantula
Tarantulas have the marvelous family name of Hairy Mygalomorphs, or primitive spiders, based on the way that their jaws move when they attack their prey. This fact, as well as the history of the tarantula (a story that begins in Italy in the 1300s), and many other amazing facts about these shy, furry spiders are detailed in this book and accompanied by incredible photographic illustrations.
