Its not just spiders, if you fact check all these animal documentaries you'll find some glaring misinformation in almost all of them. How bout the popular frog and Aphonapelma relationship, there's folks been in the hobby for years that believe it. I'm fairly certain it's horsepoop. It goes against everything we know about tarantulas. Yet someone found frogs underground in a T burrow(go figure, spiders and frogs underground..smh..), and now they have a symbiotic relationship, where the frog guards the T babies (not eating them..lol) and the spider plays cards with the frog and everyone lives happily ever after. I call bull****. Makes for a good tale though..</p></blockquote><p></p>
