On August 27, 2025, Annette Kirsch will deliver a talk titled "Spiders: Uniquely Charming", where she will discuss the unique charm of spiders, including tarantulas.
Tarantulas, considered sympathetic creatures by Annette Kirsch, are easier to care for compared to other pets. Careful care means feeding them once a week, with the best food being something from or with crickets or live worms. It's important to note that they are cheap to buy and maintain, require little attention, and are particularly suitable for allergy sufferers.
The largest described tarantula in the world is Theraphosa blondi, with a body length of up to 12 centimeters and a wingspan of up to 28 centimeters. Female tarantulas can live up to 25 years.
Annette Kirsch will also present "Lockchen" the tarantula at Tierpark Fasanerie on Sunday, August 10, 2025. The event promises an engaging and educational experience focused on spiders, dispel common fears, and offer a fun, interactive experience for all ages.
