- Looking for Cork-Lid Trapdoor Spiders (Cteniza moggridgei) and Mediterranean Wishbone Spiders (Nemesia sp.) in a forest in Southern France. I was sick when I recorded this video, so I apologize if I sound a bit stuffy.

The spiders be like: Dude stop breaking our doors!
We have some trapdoor spiders in Greece. The genus cyrtocarenum. They look just like the cteniza ones. But their burrows get very deep and I rarely mange to catch one. I love trapdoor spiders:)
I love spiders. I keep some as pets for entertainment and macro pictures. Feed them and enjoy watching them then set them free. The funny thing is.. I imagine their situations in the way that we would if we were abducted by a species we didn’t understand. I’m sure half of the spiders I catch and release go back to their buds like “you wont believe it…” the same way if aliens abduct a human and we try to tell other people. 😂🤔 and.. I’m sure some of these guys are like hey bud my house got trashed by a giant today…
U R crazy 4 real
Idk why but I find trapdoor spiders to be the cutest ones of all 😊💥
That little inhibitor looks like a perfectly shaped bowl of a spoon. I think i'm going to have some CT crunch now. Scientific name, Cinnamontoastuscrunchiday--not to be confused with its lesser competitor in the same niche, Cap'ncrunchii.
Dude! I’m loving your videos.
Thank you, Dawson. :D
Just casually taking the equivalent of a giant excavator through their living rooms. lol
I'm from India and although I have found a couple of mygalomorph species and one species of trapdoor spider, I haven't seen a burrow yet. They're getting pretty rare nowadays. Love your vids
Hunt down some giant house spiders and cardinal spiders
I have only seen one Tegenaria since I've been here. I usually see many more during the summer. Very tough to deliberately find them; they tend to just show up randomly. I'll record any more that I see.
I live in france and just by watching the comment section I just realized how rare trapdoor spiders are
Very informative vid🔥
This guy gives such good examples of how AI will eventually treat us....
In a best case scenario...
nice video! really interesting sp. i would like to study them if i ever get the chance to do so...
Cteniza is amazing!!!
Nice finds! I lived in China for eleven years and only managed to find one trapdoor spider on the day before I left and it was a juvenile! I did, however, find some huge Macrothele sp. Also found one purseweb in all those years, without a spider.. I think that once you find one you start to recognise them better to find more! This video helps because my family and I want to move to Spain this year and I reckon that their habitat will be similar. Do you have a scientific background or are you just very keen?
Spain has great mygalomorph diversity, perhaps the best in all of Europe. They have Macrothele in the south as you’re probably already aware. I do have a scientific background, but it’s only quite recent, so I’m working on expanding that. :D
@@GeneralApathy I have done a bit of research on Spain and they also have some true tarantulas, though the genus escapes me! I recently went back to school for environmental science, but the school bungled my diploma and I ended up graduating with something else. Most of the entry level positions are internships or seasonal, which isn't realistic for a father with a baby anyways...
@@GeneralApathy Made it to Spain. Do you reckon Cuenca is too far from the coast? Haven’t found any yet!
Nice
Ok in croatia i use to find scorpions and mantises both Conehead and religiosadoes these live in croatia
Oh wow
Where can I find them in Texas I’ve only ever found one here in a burrow but is there like a specific area I should look
💕✌🏼😎 very cool
in france rn so this is definitely something i’m gunna do
Good Video European stile
Why was the momma spider not moving? 😧😣😣
On the last one with the babies, why was it like, comatosed? Sleepy?
We ain't got no trapdoor spiders (I think) In southern Texas, however, we got wolf spiders the size of an infants face
rad
The frist ones loks like tarantulas and Dose it snow in southern france
Yes, it snows in Southern France, especially at high elevation, just not as much as in the North.
And Can you make a video with scorpion
In france
I am working on a couple. :)
@@GeneralApathy I know I'm jumping the gun but have you managed to find any Buthus occitanus? Also if it isn't too intrusive to ask what are you doing in France?
@@haydnr01 I did manage to find Buthus occitanus and will be publishing a video on them sometime this month or the next. I am here primarily to visit family. :D
@@GeneralApathy Awesome sadly all my family are in the UK, the coolest thing I've seen whilst visiting is Argiope bruennichi aka the wasp spider but I'll visit the E. flavicaudis colony one day lol.
@@haydnr01 You should try for Atypus affinis next time you’re there too.
