Today when I was cleaning at the bottom where I live, in the undergrowth I found this tarantula, hairy spider or cute spider as we say in Venezuela, these species build burrows or reuse those abandoned by rodents and their hunting territory is limited to a few meters around its burrow, its diet consists mainly of invertebrates such as cockroaches, giant centipedes, beetles, crickets, grasshoppers and also occasionally small rodents and lizards. It is of solitary habits and is only related during mating, they have a hairy body, and those hairs, which are irritating, act as a method of defense against predators. Its venom is not even less deadly, its chelycer produces a deep wound and the pain can last for about 48 hours, as well as nausea and sweating. Another form of defense consists in throwing stinging (irritating) hairs that they possess in their abdomen, which the human does not cause major problems, except if there is contact with the eyes or mouth.
Here is the spider walking when I released it.

Hay que tener mucho cuidado con ellas porque sueltan pelos para defenderse aparte del veneno que ellas tienen.
