AWA TARANTULA BREEDING PROJECT.

The amazing tarantula breeding project at AWA has started.

At Angkor Wildlife & Aquarium our tarantula breeding project has started. Several pairs of tarantulas were put together for mating. The tarantulas mated successfully, and all males survived. It is common for female tarantulas to eat the males after mating

This species known as the Cambodian Earth Tiger Tarantula or cyriopagopus longipes can have 150 babies at a time, so we look forward to welcoming a few thousand babies soon.

This species is collected for the food trade and are becoming rare. Our spiders will be part of a trial breeding project and will be released into a protected area.
