| Summary: | They are big and hairy and very scary: Tarantulas. This hair-raising journey discovers the secret lives of these giant spiders and explores their rising popularity in pet and food markets worldwide. From myth and phobia to the naked truth, Tarantula - Australia's King of Spiders gets up close and personal to these extraordinary creatures. Australian tarantulas are far more aggressive and prone to striking than their American cousins. They can also produce sounds, rearing-up angrily to hiss at any intruder, giving them their common names the "Barking" or "Whistling Spider". This hairy adventure explores science's newest discoveries, introduces us to the global sub culture of the rapidly growing tarantula pet trade and discovers the big business of eight-legged delicacies on Asian food markets.
