    It is possible but I would doubt that little bit was the cause. But there is no way really to tell if it was or not. Could have been lack of humidity, air ventilation, dehydration, the mold or any number of internal things that we are unaware of Is the tarantula still alive? Is it in ICU? Any progress?
