This tarantula on Tumblr is surprisingly camera-friendly

Contrary to popular perception, not all tarantulas are angels of death – some of them can actually be a pro at posing for pictures. Find that hard to believe? Then you have to check out Pandora, the furry tarantula who is winning praises all over social media.

Cassandra Tainsh, who is Pandora’s owner, loves making her unusual pet pose in a variety of hats and setups – ranging from shopping at a supermarket to skateboarding. What’s unbelievable is that just a few years ago, Tainsh was actually terrified of spiders!

The 23-year-old personal assistant now is the proud owner of nineteen tarantulas, 23 snakes and a host of other exotic creatures. If you are curious about how this Chilean Rose tarantula’s photo shoots happen then click on the video link below.
