Actually there are easy ways to help save them. Like using Amazonsmile and shopping responsibly. The biggest way is to show interest and support organizations who fight for these animals. like the World Wildlife Foundation and #Youthvgov, Because it's not fair that the first beings impacted by climate change had little or nothing to do with it. And the people inheriting the byproducts of our laziness have no choice whatsoever. Its within our reach to change things, but only if we try to fix things. support.worldwildlife.org/site/SPageServer? pagename=can_home&_ga=2.141952692.702692795.1496887654-1346074060.1496887654 www.ourchildrenstrust.org/mission-statement/

Luckily to us tarantula keepers, we now have captive bred species. Wild caught are almost 0% in the hobby.

You would be surprised of the amount of tarantulas that are still wild caught. I live in Mexico so I read a lot of news on the subject. There's even an illegal market (physical market) in Mexico City were they're sold illegally.
Idk why but watching the red kneed tarantula walk so slowly is very satisfying and kinda calming tbh.
The tapir needs me to hug him and cuddle his belly

For the 50% of people saying she pronounced Tapir wrong, it's called an accent. People are allowed to have different ways of pronouncing certain words. She pronounced it correctly no matter what others prefer to say.
I never knew Red Knee tarantulas were endangered, I've got one myself. Although I wonder if they meant B. Hamorii or B. Smithi?
@luisen1996
6 жыл бұрын
I've read Mendoza's paper on both species. I understand that B. Smithi was thought to be endangered but since it's redescription, the truth is that B. Smithi is actually rare in the hobby while B.Hamorii is actually the one most people own. So B. Hamorii is the one in the greatest threat. I believe they're not actually endangered but the way things are going they will be. They will never go extinct in the hobby but that's not all good news as they occupy an important niche in their environment.

That's awesome to see the Tapir from our zoo! :)
I would rather have humans go endangered! We could reproduce more quickly, and can live anywhere in the world! These animals must be saved!!!! Look at the cuteness :3

Should have used the Gooty sapphire instead of the Mexican red-knee. That tarantula is critically endangered and endemic to the forests of Sri Lanka, but there are no restrictions on it in the pet trade.
They all look so pretty! The Red-Ruffed Lemar was my favorite though. She looked so cute. The spider though. Pretty as she was made me jump back from my screen. >~
i was all like "awwwww" and "this is super fascinating", and then when they showed the tarantula I SKIPPED THE FUCK OUT OF THAT PART

I have two. Captive bred are not illegal. Just a problem when everyone wants and gets one by any means possible. Plus I’d never want a wild caught in fear of the T having some parasites or mites. But just my personal opinion. Never really met any T owner that WANTED a Wild Caught T
The red ruffed lemur looks like pancho from all hail King Julian!
Just amazing how our nature is so beautiful.
They literally sell a red knee tarantula at the Petworld in my town and I almost wanted it
I wish some place would get some Galapago Tortoises and set them loose to live and breed in the semi-wild so people could see them without cramping them in a cage.
The Tapir is so cute!

Those saying that spiders need to go extinct just because they are scary, are a bunch of babies. Seriously. The main reason tarantula owners don't handle their spider is so that it doesn't fall and squish its fragile abdomen.
Started to believe human behavior are the real virus threatens the earth. Also 2:20 when you think armor functionality is important but you need something stylish too

aa I saw a malayan tapir in a zoo in spain. My god it was huge. It surprised me since I have always thought tapirs as small cause I think of Bakus as small spirits.
Adra gazzel and adax😍😍😍
I have a red knee tarantula! I really hate that they're being taken out of the Wild though and that's why I got one(captive bred)! So I could spread awareness and tell people who are getting them on impulse to think before getting one because you could get a wild caught!
