🕷️ Tarantula Migration in La Junta, Colorado! 🕷️ Every fall (mid-September to October), hundreds of male Aphonopelma hentzi—Colorado’s native brown tarantulas—emerge from their burrows in the Comanche National Grassland to search for a mate.

The females stay safely underground, while the males wander up to a mile across the plains. 🌅 Best time to spot them: Around dusk on warm, calm evenings. 📍 Where: Highways 109 & 350, V

Every fall, male brown tarantulas migrate across the grasslands of southeastern Colorado... 🕷️ The males travel 20–100 meters nightly in search of mates while females remain near their burrows. 🥁 When a male tarantula finds a female’s burrow, he will stand outside the burrow entrance and drum a pair of appendages attached to their head. If interested, the female emerges and mating begins when the male holds her above his head facing him. 😵 About one-third of female tarantulas will attack the

Want to watch 21 seconds of tarantulas? Alright, we got you ⬇️ It's tarantula mating season (often mistaken for migration) and normally reclusive males reaching adulthood emerge to find an 8-legged mate. Tarantulas tend to get a bad rap and some people are afraid of them. The big, hairy brown spiders are slow, gentle and not interested in people. They are commonly seen in Southeast Colorado. Mating season is the final fling for adult males who die later in the season. Females live 20-25 years. W

🕷 It’s not Halloween yet… but the tarantulas didn’t get the memo. From late August to early October, thousands of male tarantulas emerge from their burrows across southeastern Colorado in search of love...followed by death. Known as the Colorado Tarantula Migration, this eight-legged parade is totally real...and totally wild to witness. 🎯 Best viewing? Check out Comanche National Grassland near La Junta. Would YOU go see it in person? Or hard pass with a flamethrower? 😂 . . . ----------------
