Tarantula Adoption Program We frequently receive tarantula donations and are quickly running out of space! Instead of declining these generous contributions, we’re excited to announce the launch of our Tarantula Adoption Program. During your visit to the insectarium, you’ll have the opportunity to meet tarantulas ready for adoption. We’ll also keep an updated list of adoptable tarantulas here. There will be an adoption fee based on the tarantula’s size and species, as well as an interview to ensure it’s the right fit for you. Since tarantulas can live 20 years or more, we’re committed to finding them forever homes. If you are interested in adopting email [email protected] with the following information: - is the tarantula for yourself or someone else? - if for someone else, are they under 18? - have you researched how to care for a tarantula? - are you hoping to handle your tarantula? - do you have a terrarium? - have you ever had a tarantula or any other pet bugs before? If you have a tarantula to donate email [email protected] with this information about your tarantula: - name of tarantula - species - male, female, or unknown? - tarantula temperament: can they be handled? Do they kick hairs readily? Have they struck or bitten in defense? (this has no weight on whether we take them, just want to know) - approximate age, how long you have had them - approximate size/leg span - where did you acquire them? Pet store, breeder, etc - Why are you surrendering them? - Are you including a terrarium or other supplies? Available for adoption: Coming soon |
