We're delighted to have been named runners-up in this year's BIAZA Annual Awards for our research into Gooty Ornamental Tarantula genetics! 🕷️🎉

As a critically endangered species, Gooty Ornamental Tarantulas play an important role in conservation breeding programmes, and we're incredibly proud of the work our team has been doing to support their future.

To have our research recognised by BIAZA is a fantastic achievement, and we'd like to thank everyone involved in this important project. 💚
