    About Orange Baboon

    Pterinochilus murinus, or the Orange baboon tarantula (OBT), is a nocturnal spider from Angola and southern Africa. Known for its beauty and painful bite, it's a highly defensive species that should not be handled. This spider is grumpy, aggressive, and loves to burrow.
