Massive hand-sized tarantula seen eating 15 inch snake in world first You might not immediately be able to tell what is but we can tell you that you are in fact looking at a world first. Believe it or not, the grim spectacle above is a tarantula eating the body of a snake in Brazil – the first time such a scenario has been seen in the wild. Mum who was bought an egg for £25 off eBay now has an emu The discovery, which happened in early December but has only just been reported, was made by a team of scientists in the far south of Brazil. Under a rock they found the 15 inch Almaden ground snake being preyed up by the hand-sized Grammostola tarantula. The species was only described last year and thought to only live in Uruguay. Leandro Malta Borges, a graduate student in biology at the Federal University of Santa Maria in Brazil. told Live Science: ‘Predation of such a large snake in relation to the size of the spider was extremely surprising to us.’ It is the first time a tarantula has been witnessed eating a snake in the wild. Previously, researchers had created an encounter in which a Goliath birdeater had fed on a viper. Typically tarantulas prey on other spiders, insects, smaller reptiles, amphibians, birds or mammals. Leandro added: ‘There are other records of spiders preying on snakes, such as the famous black widow, which has a strong toxin and, besides, rely on the web for capturing.’ The results have since been published in a paper.

Kada su mladi znanstvenici u južnom Brazilu pomaknuli kamen dok su tražili tarantule, naletjeli su na nešto što nisu očekivali – pauka kako jede zmiju, objavio je Live Science. Tarantula imena Grammostola quirogai je žvakala tijelo zmije vrste Erythrolamprus almadensis. To je prvi put ikad viđeno u divljini, da se taranutula hrani zmijom. “Činjenica da je pauk na kraju pojeo zmiju, i to tako veliku zmiju, jako nas je iznenadila”, izjavio je Leandro Malta Borges, student biologije na Sveučilištu Santa Maria u Brazilu. Vrsta koja je prvi put službeno opisana prošle godine Borges i njegovi kolege izvjestili su 3. prosinca časopis Herpetology Notes o svom neobičnom otkriću. Istraživači su proučavali tarantule u Serri doCaverá, kršnom predjelu južnog Brazila. Ispod kamena su otkrili 39 centimetara dugačku zmiju koju je jela odrasla ženka pauka G. quirogai. Ova vrsta je službeno opisana prošle godine, rekao je Borges, a poznato je da dolazi iz Urugvaja. - Izbila masovna tučnjava banda u brazilskom zatvoru.
