Peruvian Bird Eating Tarantula in Shadow Box Frame (Hapalotremus Carabaya)

This is a real preserved Peruvian Bird Eating Tarantula which has been rehydrated, positioned, dried and pinned inside a timber shadow box frame.

This spider is a genus of South American tarantulas in the Theraphosinae subfamily. They are a medium-large sized tarantula from Peru and are known for having a beautiful blue colour on its legs in the sunlight.

The frame is wall mountable and also has a stand attached to the back, making this an easy to setup display.

Our spiders are sourced from conservation farms where they typically live out their full life cycle and are collected once they pass on. From there, they are professionally preserved and sold to either businesses or education centres. This whole process is mostly run by small and family owned industries who are indigenous to the land they protect.
