Один самець тарантула прожив без їжі майже 23 місяці | One Male Tarantula Went Nearly 23 Months Without Food

Can a tarantula go years without eating? A 2022 scientific report documented one captive male Chilean rose tarantula (*Grammostola rosea*) that refused prey and went 22 months without food. This is a striking documented case, not a universal norm for all tarantulas: fasting depends on species, age, energy reserves, keeping conditions, and water. The illustration was created with AI.
