I Unleashed a Swarm of Huntsman Spiders Into My Giant Rainforest Vivarium

This video by @AntsCanada is about the introduction of huntsman spiders into a vivarium called Pantdora. The creator introduces Lady Death Strike, a giant huntsman spider, and her hundreds of newborn spider babies into the rainforest. The creator feeds Lady Death Strike to fatten her up before releasing her to avoid her preying on vertebrates. Another tarantula and land planaria are introduced. The video also covers interactions between various creatures in the vivarium, including ants, geckos, and other predators. The creator reflects on the project's progress and philosophical implications. Stay tuned to the end, for a surprise message regarding Lady Death Strike.
