“One” on my favorite spiders, the Suntiger Tarantula (Psalmopoeus Irminia). This particular one is a small captive bred juvenile spider with fantastic markings and colour. Also known as the Venezuelan Suntiger they are found in Venezuela and Brazil. They are an arboreal spider that prefers a humid environment with lots of climbing area. These guys are not usually recommended for handling given their quickness and probability to bite. When all is said and done still a extremely attractive spider and fairly easy to care for.
