Blogger Andrei Pavuk Got Spectacular "Alter Ego"

A well-known fighter for justice made a photo session with a live totem.

Zoologists say that the South Russian tarantula is slowly settling in our land. And yet, it remains exotic, not everyone has met this graceful creature. The other day, Andrei Pavuk, a resident of the village of Kastrychnitski, got lucky. He was presented with a tarantula by a friend, who had found it in her bed, onliner.by writes.

This time a refugee from the southern regions lurked in an agricultural house, the resident of the village of Hats noticed it.

– She was spreading the bed, raised the veil – and it was there, – Andrei says. – She put it in a half-liter jar, tried to feed it with flies, but who knows what it eats... And the next day she brought it to me. The children were happy. We decided not to leave it as a pet, because we do not know how to take care of it.

The tarantula behaved quite peacefully. After the photo session it was released into the grass.

– We forgot to give it a name, – Pavuk is upset. – But, I think it was a typical Artur.

The South Russian tarantula until recently was common mainly in the southern part of Ukraine and the European part of Russia. Due to the climate warming it has appeared in our country. It feeds on insects or other spiders. Its bite can be compared to a bite of a hornet, it is not dangerous for the life and health of most of the people.
