A zoo has released a timelapse video of a tarantula moulting its skin and it’s pretty gory.
The video shows a Mexican red-kneed tarantula shedding and wriggling out of its exoskeleton.
Cincinnati Zoo posted the video, taken over seven hours and sped up, on its Facebook page.
They usually grow to a body size of around 5in.
