Yikes... that is indeed a tarantula though I don’t know what kind. Unfortunately it looks like it is dying/ dead. How did you get the tarantula?

I see. Kids will be kids but its unfortunate that they would want to kill it just for fun.

Sounds like you are a bit interested in tarantulas. If you decide to catch or buy another you have found a great place for advice!

It's dying. Give it a water dish asap. They need to drink.

Doesn't look like you're doing it any favors anymore.

Give it a cage with deep moist sub and see what it does from there. It's likely a burrowed.

Sorry to hear that. You will find a lot of useful information on here and other forums as there are a multitude of knowledgeable keepers and breeders around. Steer clear of most online care sheets, they're pretty generic and can/will kill your Ts. Good luck.
