EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of the breathtaking Tes-Hem valley, nestled among the lush woods of Erzin settlement in South Tuva, Russia, lives a fascinating and enigmatic creature - the Singoriensis Tarantula (Trochosa singoriensis). This arachnid is a native of this region and can often be found lurking in the dense undergrowth, patiently waiting for its unsuspecting prey. The Tes-Hem valley, with its crystal-clear waters and verdant foliage, provides the perfect habitat for this intriguing spider. The Tarantula's habitat is a crucial aspect of its survival, as it relies on the abundant vegetation for shelter and the river for moisture. The woods offer the spider a wealth of insects, its primary food source, ensuring a steady supply of sustenance. The Singoriensis Tarantula is a remarkable creature, with its distinctive, vibrant colors and long, hairy legs. Its size, measuring up to 10 centimeters in length, can be intimidating to the uninitiated. However, this spider is generally harmless to humans, and its bite is only dangerous to smaller animals. The history of the Singoriensis Tarantula is deeply rooted in the rich cultural heritage of the region. For centuries, the people of South Tuva have revered these spiders, believing that they possess healing properties. The local folklore holds that a bite from a Singoriensis Tarantula can cure various ailments, including arthritis and rheumatism. This photograph captures the essence of the Singoriensis Tarantula's unique habitat and the enchanting beauty of the woods in the Tes-Hem valley. The image serves as a testament to the wonders of the natural world and the importance of preserving the delicate balance of ecosystems that support such remarkable creatures.
