Just for you, Bricky boy, just try to pick one up in Arkansas.
Have a nice trip to the hospital.
I'll be cheering for the spider.

Dear RB,

I've never seen such a thing, but I'll keep an open mind about lines
or groups of tarantulas.

"Groups of tarantulas are often seen in the evenings at Desert View,
scuttling back into the warmth of the [Grand] canyon for the night."

http://www.travelotica.com/travelgu...h-rim-47220.htm

"I live in the country and during certain times of the year you'll see
a line of tarantulas crossing the highway."

http://community.cookinglight.com/a...hp?t-27548.html

The mass migrations in search of mates are well-known in Texas:

"Exactly when male brown tarantulas go a-roaming seems determined by
the weather. Their movements tend to occur after a rain in early
morning or late afternoon. Mass sightings are rare but memorable.
Arachnologist David Sissom of West Texas A&M University in Canyon
recalls braking to a stop on Highway 385 just south of Odessa early
one summer morning in 1986. 'There were hundreds of tarantulas
crossing the road, all moving in the same direction,' he says. 'For
100 yards or so, there was easily a tarantula every meter or two. It
was pretty incredible.'"

Tarantulas migrate? What were these Army Tarantulas? Or perhaps a new
sub-species of traveling Tarantula somehow related to the Monarch
butterfly.

I don't know what they were doing but a bunch of them just walked over
my legs and paid no attention to me. Why there were a dozen or so, I
don't know, only that they seemed determined to get someplace.

That is a possible explanation. I was on highway 152 (the Pacheco pass
road) and stopped at an access to the new Melones reservoir, just to
kick back and relax after about 6 hours of driving. They appeared to see
me as a non threat and just kept marching. I thought it was strange
behavior too.

I had a dozen or so in a cluster of about 1 meter so it had to be some
kind of social event, maybe looking for mates. I know absolutely nothing
about spider rituals so I am not making any assumptions here.

Dear RB,

Yes, male tarantulas "migrate" in search of females, both singly and
in large, mindless swarms, which is one reason that they're so often
seen crossing roads:

"Exactly when male brown tarantulas go a-roaming seems determined by
the weather. Their movements tend to occur after a rain in early
morning or late afternoon. Mass sightings are rare but memorable.

Dear Carl,

While I don't dispute what Sissom saw, the article doesn't reveal
whether that occurance was normal, a rarity or even a one off.

RB
