Goliath tarantula, also known as spider eats birds.
It is impossible not to be impacted by the physical appearance of a Goliath tarantula. They are arachnids that measure a maximum of 30 cm in length and weigh around 170 g. His body is light brown or dark and have eight eyes but his vision is not acute, being able to only perceive the changes in the level of luminosity, but they can not clearly identify the objects. To counteract this deficiency, they have sensorial hairs with which they detect vibrations in the ground and in the air that allow them to know the proximity of their prey or enemy.
They inhabit jungle zones of Venezuela, Suriname, Guyana, French Guiana and northeastern Brazil.
Earthworms are the most common food, but also consume a variety of insects and small vertebrates such as frogs, frogs, rodents, lizards, bats and snakes. Very rarely do they catch small birds.

Their fangs are large and although their level of venom is not deadly for humans, it is very painful and usually brings with it irritation, nausea, dizziness and sweating. Unlike what is believed to see their size, they are lonely beings who only usually live in reproductive seasons, but if they feel threatened or are bothered by an unknown presence their level of aggressiveness becomes high.
