Fuzzy Tarantula

Here comes the big fuzzy one! This page shows a chunky tarantula with a wide hairy body and thick, bristly legs, two small fangs at the front, standing low to the ground with all eight legs spread out. The short bristle marks across the body and legs give older kids lots of texture to shade, while the large overall shape still leaves plenty of open space for younger colorers. Tarantulas are among the biggest spiders in the world, and the giant bird-eating tarantula can have a leg span as wide as a dinner plate! Despite their size, most are slow-moving and shy, and many people even keep them as gentle pets. Talk about those tiny defensive hairs as you color, and notice how the eight thick legs fan out around the wide body. Print it on US Letter or A4 and make your tarantula brown, black, or any bold color you choose.
