Monteverde Butterfly Gardens, Costa Rica. 14 Nov 2017
Observations at Monteverde Butterfly Gardens. All butterflies, insects, invertebrates and the frog observed here are cultivated or captured.
The spiders in this observation were found at the Gardens but are probably residents at the Garden, not captured.

Spotted in the grounds of the Monteverde Butterfly Gardens on a tree, but not in the butterfly enclosures.
This leads me to believe this is not a captured or cultivated spider.

sohkamyungDescription
Spotted in the information area of the Monteverde Butterfly Garden.
Described by the Garden as one of three (later, two - one was killed by one of the other orb-weavers) Orb-weavers who have become residents of the Garden.
However, I do not believe they are captives or cultivated by the Garden itself.
