The CAS, established in 2009, is a nonprofit organization dedicated to furthering education about tarantulas and other arachnids. A cooperative effort, our membership includes everyone from professional men and women of all ages. The common threads that bind us together are an interest in tarantulas, scorpions, and other arachnids and that we either need help from others, or have some to share. Here you'll find people you can talk with about your common interests and concerns.
The Cebu Arachnida Society aims to promote interest in the ecology, behaviour and taxonomy of arachnids in the Philippines especially in the Visayan region.
