Camel Spider Glass Dome Display Specimen Arachnid Taxidermy Entomology rare

V1f #7

This Camel spider is nice!  This is a very cool display!  The whole display is approx. 5 1/4 x 3 1/2".  This will be packed well to eliminate damage however if a leg does come loose in shipping, as it can, a dab of hot glue will fix it right back and we do have a short video that will show you how to repair an insect. 

This would make a nice addition to any collection as well as a great teaching tool!  You will love him!  He is coved in a glass dome with a wood base.
