Spawning and taming

Tarantulas are rare spawns in dry rainforest (Mexican red knee, Antilles pinktoe), wet rainforest (cobalt blue, goliath birdeater), hot desert (Chilean rose hair, western desert, green bottle blue), dry grassland (Brazilian black), and wet savanna (king baboon) biomes. They spawn alone.

While ambient, as territorial animals, attempting to pick them up will be considered as an attack and they will begin to deal damage to the player. It is recommended to use a capture cage or a slingshot net instead. While dangerous, fortunately they are slow.

Tarantulas cannot be tamed, but are still perfect for your exhibits anyways!

Care

Tarantulas have 2 hearts (4 points) of health, can deal 2 hearts (4 points) of damage, and drop tarantula item (species dependent) upon death.

As ambient animals, they do not need specialized care.

Tarantulas can be bred with mealworms.

Usage

When killed, tarantulas drop a species specific tarantula item, and are part of several diets to feed tamed animals.
