Tarantulas do not have nails like mammals; instead, they have claws at the tips of their legs. These claws are part of their exoskeleton and help them grip surfaces, climb, and capture prey. Additionally, tarantulas have specialized hairs called setae that allow them to sense their environment and aid in locomotion.
