A friend got this little tarantula while cleaning their house. He knew that I have tarantula pets and my son Jasher wanted to explore some new thing and creature. So he decided to take it and hand it to my son. What I though first was just an ordinary Orange Huntsman or Lichen Spider which is common in this place. But as I take a look at it, its not a common spider. So here's some pictures of it. The camera is not actually clear but here's some few specifications on this species. It's actually reddish or dark red, not black or brown. Also as I have said I have tarantula pets, so basically I knew some species of old world tarantula, but few species in Philippines and I don't have enough information on them. I don't know if it is a Philippine Dwarf (P. Baeri) normally it's dark, or Orphnaecus Philippinus normally Orange, I don't know. Anyway, what do you think it is? Location is Zambales Philippines.
I'll be keeping this one, if I release it in the wild, it could only have 20-30% survival rate since I don't know exactly their habitat. If you have a better suggestion, I'll appreciate it.
