There is a world somewhere between reality and fiction. Although ignored by many, it is very real and so are those living in it. This forum is about the natural world. Here, wild animals will be heard and respected. The forum offers a glimpse into an unknown world as well as a room with a view on the present and the future. Anyone able to speak on behalf of those living in the emerald forest and the deep blue sea is invited to join.

Haplocosmia Nepalensis

Although tarantulas can be found in many countries and habitats around the world, Haplocosmia nepalensis are native to Nepal. Their bodies consist of two distinct parts -- the carapace, or front portion including the eyes and a protective plate, and the abdomen. Like all tarantulas, they are distinctively hairy and use fine hairs on their legs to detect air movement, thereby sensing when predators or prey are nearby. These tarantulas do not build a web; rather, they prefer to live alone in a self-constructed burrow.
