Rare tarantulas bred in captivity for 1st time
A female Montserrat tarantula has given birth to 200 baby spiders in UK's Chester Zoo, making it the first time the species has been bred in captivity, zoo officials said. After bringing some spiders in 2013, the zoo said it waited for months while the arthropods hid in underground burrows, from where, eventually, 200 baby spiders crawled out without warning.
