Hi all,
This might be a daft question but I would be very interested in doing a conservation holiday type thing, but with the opportunity to help out with something tarantula related. I have had a look on the web (haha)and although I have found lots of information on these type of holidays, there is nothing at all related to spiders/Ts. (I am not really surprised by this as T's aren't exactly of mainstream interest.) I wondered if anyone would have any advice or information on where I could try? I am a biology graduate, have had pet tarantulas for about 10 years now, and would love to spend a couple of weeks in a nice hot country doing some sort of useful research or conservation based work with tarantulas, as I would love the chance to see them in their natural environment rather than always in little glass boxes. Is there anything going on in this field that might want a volunteer?
