Many tarantulas consequently became more widely known by their common names, such as Mexican redknee tarantula for Brachypelma hamorii. Various societies now focus on the husbandry, care, study, and captive breeding of tarantulas, and other arachnids. They also typically produce journals or newsletters with articles and advice on these subjects.
