A recently posted message caused a stir in a settlement in Graz-Strasgang: “Beware! Escaped tarantula!” it read. But reptile expert Werner Stangl suspects a villainous villain is behind it…
“Keep windows and doors closed!” warns the author of a note in an apartment building in Graz-Strassegang. Of course, the residents of the 18 apartments did – and immediately contacted reptile and amphibian expert Werner Stangl.
“When I was there, the note suddenly looked different than before — the text was the same, but the writing was different.” After a long search, Stangl could not find a tarantula. And even in the three weeks since the incident, none of the residents have reported a sighting.
30 degrees, closed windows
“It was probably a stupid joke,” Werner Stangl speculates. “Some people think it’s funny when people don’t open the window when it’s 30 degrees.”
