Chapter 1774: Giant Tarantula
After all, she thought just now that this little jumping spider must be unable to beat this big tarantula. But the result is beyond everyone's expectations. This little jumping spider actually defeated this big tarantula.
After hearing what Feifei and Tiantian said, Zhao Zhongyao said, ‘This only shows that this little jumping spider has a special weapon. And this big tarantula just doesn't have any special weapons. Also, the reason why this little jumping spider was able to trap this big tarantula was probably because it had some other secret weapon. Something like poisonous fog. ’
After hearing what Zhao Zhongyao said, Feifei said in a puzzled manner, ‘dad, what are you talking about, what poison mist will this little jumping spider use, and how does he use this poison mist? ’
Hearing what my dad said every day, she was also very puzzled. She also looked at him curiously and said, ‘dad, what are you talking about, what poisonous fog, I don’t understand what you are talking about. ’
After hearing what his son and daughter said, Zhao Zhongyao said, ‘I mean, this little jumping spider may be able to spray a poisonous mist from its mouth at a critical moment. This poisonous mist may stun the prey you want to capture. In this way, it can slowly enjoy its prey. ’
Zhao Zhongyao didn't understand what all of this was going on, and it was just a speculation of him. It felt that this little jumping spider might spray some poisonous mist in front of this big tarantula, and then made this big tarantula immobile.
After hearing what his father said, Feifei said again, ‘dad, but I just don’t understand, isn’t this great tarantula also poisonous! Why doesn't it spray poisonous mist on this red-spotted jumping spider! Why are you poisoned by others? Feifei still doesn't understand this point.
Zhao Zhongyao heard Feifei's words and said again, ‘it may be the case, although this big tarantula is poisonous. But it can only use the cilia on its body to poison. Unable to spit out the poisonous mist from the mouth. In this way, this red-spotted jumping spider is more powerful than this big tarantula. ’
Feifei heard what Zhao Zhongyao said, and felt very reasonable. But he still didn't understand one thing. He didn't understand if this little jumping spider could stun the big tarantula with poisonous mist, then why would it use a net to trap the big tarantula.
Thinking of this, Feifei said again, ‘Dad, if this little jumping spider can stun this great tarantula, why does it trap this great tarantula with a net? ’
After hearing Feifei’s words, Zhao Zhongyao thought for a while and said, ‘It may be the case, its poisonous mist can only produce a short-term stun effect on this big tarantula. Soon, this big tarantula may wake up. If this big tarantula wakes up, then this little jumping spider can't deal with it.
Therefore, after this little jumping spider stuns the big tarantula, it must first trap it. In this way, even if it wakes up again, it can no longer escape. ’
When Zhao Zhongyao said so, Feifei felt very reasonable. This is how this little jumping spider thinks of a two-pronged strategy. On the one hand, it has to stun the big tarantula with poisonous fog, and on the other hand, it has to trap it with a net. In this way, it can enjoy its feast slowly.
‘Dad, what you said makes sense, and that seems to be the reason. Now, this little jumping spider can slowly enjoy his own meal. Said Feifei.
Just when Feifei said this, the great tarantula really struggled suddenly. Obviously it suddenly came to life.
But when it woke up, it had already trapped this little jumping spider with a net, and it was impossible even if it wanted to escape.
‘Dad, your guess is indeed correct. This big tarantula really woke up. When Feifei saw the great tarantula struggling in the net, he knew that Dad's speculation was completely correct.
Tian Tian looked at the struggling giant tarantula in front of him in surprise and said, ‘Dad, you are so amazing. Even the little insects on Mercury knew so well. ’
After hearing what Tiantian said, Zhao Zhongyao smiled and said, ‘how can I even understand the little insects here. I just used my imagination to speculate. ’
At this time, Feifei looked at the little jumping spider that wanted to eat this big tarantula and said, "Dad, this little jumping spider can slowly enjoy this meal this time. . ’
After hearing Feifei’s words, Zhao Zhongyao smiled and said, ‘It should be almost the same! However, who knows what else will happen. ’
Zhao Zhongyao felt that on this Mercury prairie, it was also dangerous. Who knows if there are any other predators here.
Just after Zhao Zhongyao said so, this red-spotted jumping spider. Just made a strange movement. It was meant to enjoy its own meal. And this big tarantula was also struggling back and forth in a big web that the red spotted spider wove him, trying to get rid of the shackles of these silk webs. But it is useless no matter how hard you try.
Obviously, this kind of very slender screen is also very strong. Although the giant tarantula is very large, its strength should be much greater than that of the red spot jumping spider. But for the web woven by the red-spotted jumping spider, this great tarantula has nothing to do. It cannot break free from the web woven by the red-spotted jumping spider.
Originally, Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei felt that this great tarantula was about to become the prey of this red-spotted jumping spider. This red-spotted jumping spider also worked hard for this great tarantula, and used various powerful weapons to subdue such a big prey.
But what everyone did not expect was that this red-spotted jumping spider just wanted to enjoy its prey, it seemed to feel something was wrong, and immediately jumped up and escaped.
All this made Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei very puzzled. Although Zhao Zhongyao had a foreboding, something magical would happen. But he didn't understand why this red-spotted jumping spider suddenly ran away. It didn't even want its hard-earned prey, so it just ran away.
‘Dad, what’s going on, how did this red-spotted jumping spider escape? Why doesn’t it want its prey. Feifei is very puzzled.
Zhao Zhongyao heard Feifei’s words and said, ‘I don’t understand what’s going on. However, look clearly, some other predator is coming. ’
‘What, other predators. Feifei looked around after hearing what his father said, but he didn't see any other predators.
But just as Feifei looked around, suddenly, in front of them, a ‘behemoth’ appeared. It’s certainly not appropriate to say that it’s a giant. After all, this thing is as big as a small pot. However, this is already the largest animal on Mercury that Zhao Zhongyao and the others have seen.
'what! What kind of monster is this. When Feifei looked at this little animal, it was immediately taken aback. After all, this little thing is indeed a little bigger. It's much bigger than the two little spiders just now.
However, in terms of appearance, this is still a spider. However, it is a very large spider. The overall shape is not much different from the previous two small spiders, and they also have eight legs and a round pointed belly. And, there is a strange head.
The color of this giant spider's body is pale green. It is the same color as the weeds next to it. If it is not in action, it will make people feel like a weed.
This big spider appeared suddenly, not only frightened Feifei, even Tiantian and Qu Yuqian who were standing on the side were shocked. After all, the two of them are women. When they saw such a big spider, they were shocked and immediately hid behind Zhao Zhongyao and Feifei.
Of course Zhao Zhongyao also saw this strange big spider. The big spider just now may be hidden in the grass beside it. When this red-spotted jumping spider finally defeated the big tarantula and wanted to enjoy a big meal, it suddenly came out and wanted to compete for the big meal that the red-spotted jumping spider finally got.
However, Zhao Zhongyao glanced intently, and felt that the big spider in front of him was somewhat familiar. So he blurted out, ‘this is not a tarantula! ’
After hearing what his father said, Feifei said with a puzzled expression, ‘dad, what is a tarantula, is it a very powerful spider! ’
After hearing Feifei's words, Zhao Zhongyao said, ‘It seems that you don’t know what kind of spider a tarantula is, then I will tell you some knowledge about tarantulas! ’
After finishing talking, Zhao Zhongyao told Feifei some knowledge about tarantulas. Tiantian and Qu Yuqian also hid behind Zhao Zhongyao, watching the giant spider in front of them curiously, and listening to Zhao Zhongyao's knowledge about this magical tarantula.
Tarantulas are relatively primitive spiders, densely covered with fine hairs. Some Tarantulas in South and North America have irritating sting hairs in some parts of their bodies. When they encounter natural enemies such as mice, they use their hind feet to scatter this natural itchy powder. The enemy's reaction is like a worker's whole body itching after laying woven glass felt. So you can use this type of body protection, but it may not bite as well as tarantulas in Asia and other places. American Tarantulas are often less toxic than those in Asia and other places.
Due to the different species, the body length of the spider varies from 2.5 to 10 cm, and the foot span is 8 to 30 cm. The largest spider: the Amazon giant bird-eating spider, with a foot span of more than 30 cm.
The Amazon Giant Tarantula is the largest spider with a foot span of 30 cm. It is native to the Amazon rainforest and lives in tree holes. It can eat sparrow cubs and whole pigeons at once. They have very long fangs, usually 5 mm long, to facilitate the injection of venom into the prey. Tarantula is a "giant" among spiders, about the size of a fist, and its body width can reach more than 20 cm when its four legs are abducted. Some tarantulas are one of the most ingenious hunters in nature.
Some tarantulas have the unique ability to spin silk and weave nets. They rely on the vibrations of the net and the ground to perceive the prey in their attack range, and then attack. When insects fall into the web, they must become the food of the bird-eating spider.
Bird-eating spiders are usually active at night. They hide in nests or tree roots near the net during the day. As soon as a prey touches the net, it quickly crawls over, grabs the prey, secretes venom, and poisons the prey as food. Because it is so fierce, humans must also beware. The web of a tarantula can withstand a weight of 300 grams. In 1975, several branches of a large tree were found in Mexico, covered by a huge and multi-layered spider web. The largest web could actually cover the branches of an 18.3 meter tall tree on the upper part 34.
The Tarantulas of the New World can wipe off the hair on their abdomen with their feet when they encounter a siege. Once the opponent sticks to it, it will be itchy and painful to chase. The eyes of the Tarantula are located in the depression on the top of the head breastplate. They are very small, there are 4 in total, arranged in two rows. Most of them are used to perceive the light and darkness and the movement of objects. Arboreal tarantulas usually have better eyesight than terrestrial ones. Tarantula's head and mouth still have a pair of powerful teeth, like a pair of pliers, which can rotate freely. There are venom glands under the chelating teeth, and the venom can be secreted from the tips of cheating teeth. Tarantulas like to be alone. Oviparous, generally can live for more than ten years, even 30 years.
Tarantulas have weaker venom, but are more than adequate against insects and small vertebrates. Amazon Tarantulas live in long and narrow holes. When the prey crawls in, the bristles on the legs of the Tarantula can detect the size, size, and speed of the prey through the vibration of the airflow. When it has enough information, it will attack suddenly and inject the venom into the prey. Even a snake cannot escape within its sphere of influence. The venom of the tarantula is injected into the body of the snake, and the snake is dissolved soon.
Tarantulas can eat all kinds of insects or other invertebrates, but artificial breeding is still mainly insects such as cherry cockroaches, crickets, dubia cockroaches, yellow mealworms, barley insects, etc., but pigs, chickens, duck livers, Earthworms, small fishes, shrimps, grasshoppers, suckling mice, etc. can all be used as side feeds for spiders. It is best not to feed them frequently because they will burden the body of the tarantula.
Tarantulas have almost become synonymous with poisonous spiders. But most of the hairy spiders on the market are low in toxicity and will not kill people. Tarantulas are more aggressive, so pay special attention. But as long as you do not deliberately tease, you will not be attacked by spiders. It is said that it will even prey on small birds in the natural environment. In fact, its food is almost all insects.
To raise this kind of spider at home, you should prepare a breeding box with clean coconut soil and a small water box. Coconut soil can adjust the temperature and humidity in the breeding box, and can also absorb spider excrement. It is best to choose a small glass fish tank for the breeding box, and arrange the bonsai as you wish, but the environment should not be too complicated to prevent spiders from preying. Tarantulas have developed an extraordinary resistance to hunger. They are fed once every 5 to 7 days as a larvae, and an insect can be fed to an adult in 7 to 10 days.
