About [Edit]
Malaysian Tarantula Society was established on 1st January 2005 by a group of arachnids enthusiast. This page is all about the growth, progress and activities of this new organisation. Membership is not restricted to Malaysians only, we welcome International members too.
Why does the Malaysian Tarantula Society even exist? In Malaysia, the understanding and knowledge towards tarantulas are poor. The tarantulas has got a bad reputation due to movie films and perhaps, its physical appearance. The Malaysian Tarantula Society is dedicated to educate people about tarantulas and thier habitat. The MTS is not here to exploit the tarantulas or sell them for profit purposes. Although tarantulas can be bought through MTS, but the tarantulas sold by MTS are solely for an individual to slowly take their time to learn and observe these amazing creatures. This is considered one of the way to learn more about these arachnids. The government has just been aware that certain species that originates from Malaysia are on the verge of extinction, but has yet to enact any law to protect them. This is one of the reasons why MTS is here. To teach, share and protect the tarantulas. Besides by being a registered society, the Malaysian Tarantula Society receives no grant from the government. So we hope you could give MTS your full support and be part of us.
