About the Goliath Birdeater

Known to science as Theraphosa blondi, the Goliath Birdeater is an arachnid found in South America. Its habitats include rainforests and wetlands.

This arachnid weighs about 175 g and can live for around 20 years. It moves slowly, with a top speed of just 0.3 km/h. Estimates put its population at about 100,000 individuals.

It has not been evaluated (NE) by the IUCN, so there is no official assessment of its risk of extinction. In Animal Gacha, its card has Uncommon rarity. Rarity is a game value informed by conservation status, not an IUCN category. Uncommon cards turn up less often than Common ones.
