00:00Almost everyone is afraid of this, and I can't even hold it anymore.
00:04And because of how scary it looks, you'll probably get screamed at.
00:08Let's try that later.
00:10Good luck.
00:11But on the other hand, there are still people who are afraid of pets.
00:15What is this, Meiji?
00:16Yes, this.
00:17Because I saw in the studio what you're talking about.
00:22Tarantula.
00:24And this Wednesday, Pets Day, we'll find out
00:27how to properly take care of a tarantula.
00:30We'll be joined by wildlife conservationist Jen Sudel Rosario.
00:35Good morning, and welcome back to Rise and Shine Philippines.
00:38Good morning.
00:39Hi, Jen.
00:40Sir Jen, please introduce your pet.
00:43This is a Mexican red-necked tarantula.
00:47If you can see, it has red fangs.
00:49That's why it's called Mexican red-necked tarantula.
00:52Oh.
00:54So, are all tarantula species,
00:56because you mentioned that you have 16 different species,
01:01are all of them reptiles?
01:03Yes, because these reptiles,
01:05this is what they use to sense the air movements, vibrations,
01:09so they'll know that there are predators or prey approaching them.
01:12And at the same time, this is also what they use
01:15to irritate our predators.
01:19Isn't that, of course, what everyone is asking,
01:22isn't it dangerous because it can be poisonous?
01:25Well, spiders or tarantulas don't have poison,
01:29only venom, yes.
01:32But actually, all spiders are venomous.
01:36Even the small ones you see at home?
01:38Yes, but it's not fatal to humans.
01:40They only use their venom
01:43on their prey, spiders or their prey.
01:46But for humans, it's safe.
01:48I just want to know, that's a misconception, right?
01:50Yes, at least...
01:51So, they're just spider to spider?
01:53Yes.
01:53Yes, their venom has an effect.
01:56So, gents, in captivity, what's the ideal enclosure?
02:00Like, do we have a size?
02:03Do we have a look?
02:05Yes.
02:06Like this one, they're different.
02:08It also depends on the species.
02:09We have what's called arboreal and terrestrial.
02:12The arboreal is the species that lives on trees,
02:15that's why the set-up is like this.
02:17So, it looks like a tree, right?
02:21Yes.
02:22We also have the terrestrial,
02:24it's the one that's mostly found on the ground,
02:26that's why it's spread out like this.
02:28Then, we also have the fossorial.
02:30The fossorial are the spiders or tarantulas
02:33that live underground.
02:36But, I'm just curious,
02:37why did you decide to raise them?
02:40Your pets are different.
02:41Yes, actually, I have a lot of collections
02:43of different animals.
02:45Exotic animals?
02:46Yes, especially the tarantulas.
02:48When I was young,
02:49of course, the ones that live in the fields,
02:51on the farm,
02:52there are usually cockroaches,
02:53we fight them with our toys.
02:55Yes.
02:56Did you experience that?
02:57Yes, I did.
02:58The one that you put on the back of the phosphorus.
03:00But, it's small,
03:01but it's like this.
03:02Yes, it's not like that.
03:03Go ahead, try it, Daniel.
03:06What are your tips or advice
03:08for people who have pets
03:10or want to raise tarantulas?
03:13Of course, first of all,
03:14do your own research.
03:15What kind of setup do they need?
03:17Like this one,
03:18terrestrial and arboreal.
03:20And of course,
03:21when we start,
03:22we need to go to the new world,
03:24or what we call
03:25old world and new world species of tarantula.
03:28The new world,
03:29they are safe to hold,
03:30they don't run,
03:31just like them,
03:32they just behave.
03:33There, behave.
03:34I think Majie wants to hold it.
03:36Is it ticklish?
03:37It's a bit ticklish,
03:39but it can handle it.
03:40It's not too ticklish.
03:41Okay, let's try it.
03:43Just hold it here,
03:44and take it off right away.
03:45Can you do that?
03:46Yes, I can.
03:47Hey, it's like you're trying to scare me.
03:52This is my first time,
03:54I'm always scared, but...
03:56Just hold it here.
04:00It's good, you can finish it.
04:03I think it's okay,
04:04it's the thought that counts.
04:07I think Dicky wants to try it.
04:10There.
04:11Dian is the one who has a strong heart
04:14for exotic animals.
04:15Does it feel like it's being petted?
04:18No, it doesn't.
04:19Oh, it's so cute.
04:21Oh, it's so soft.
04:23Yes.
04:24Oh, it's...
04:25Oh.
04:26It's ticklish, right?
04:28No, it's not.
04:29Okay, I'm jealous.
04:31It's true,
04:32it's so soft on the hand.
04:34See?
04:36There.
04:37Is it okay?
04:38Is it okay?
04:40You boys are so...
04:42Audrey, Audrey.
04:43It's soft,
04:44but the...
04:46What do you call it?
04:47The feet,
04:48it has feet,
04:49it's called spider.
04:50Yes.
04:51It's sticky, right?
04:52Yes.
04:53It's great.
04:54But does it feel like a cockroach?
04:55Because it's a cockroach.
04:56No, it's like...
04:57Actually, it's like a stuffed toy.
04:59Oh.
05:01It's so cute.
05:02Is it okay?
05:03It's okay.
05:04It's a bit hard.
05:06Yes.
05:07There, there's something.
05:08It's soft,
05:10but you'll feel it's sticky.
05:12That's why the spiders can really
05:14touch the walls, right?
05:17Daniel can do it.
05:18Yes, Daniel can do it.
05:20Go ahead, Daniel.
05:21But, Jens, you're selling this, right?
05:23Oh, yes.
05:24It's a bit...
