Tarantulas can live over 20 years in captivity

Tarantulas can live over 20 years in captivity

Female tarantulas are among the longest-lived terrestrial invertebrates; many pass twenty years in careful captivity.

Males typically die soon after mating — a short adult chapter after a long juvenile wait.

Longevity wears fuzzy legs. The calm pet in a tank may outlast your childhood furniture.
