This tarantula was going to die a virgin. His owner turned to Reddit to hook him up

A tarantula owner whose male spider was nearing the end of his roughly 20-year lifespan without ever mating posted to Reddit's r/tarantulas asking how to find him a female. The thread drew dozens of replies weighing options like shipping the spider to a breeder or finding a local hobbyist with a receptive female, along with warnings about the risks of a mismatched pairing. No match was confirmed in the post.
