A landlord in Auburn, Maine, called on an animal rescuer to take care of 15 tarantulas and one python that had been left behind by a tenant. The rescuer, Drew Desjardins, found that four of 19 tarantulas had died and that the ball python did not have water. Desjardins said Thursday that he took the surviving animals back to his home and that they were doing fine. All the recovered animals are illegal in Maine and will be relocated.
