As firefighters tame flames in a 375-acre wildfire burning in Mount Diablo State Park near Curry Canyon, they are also dealing with tarantulas. (Oh dear!) The firefighters, it seems, "also had to deal with tarantulas that are native to the hills," breathlessly reports KTVU.

The wildfire, which sparked around 4 p.m. on Tuesday, has scorched dry brushland "but has not damaged any structures or caused evacuations."

As of this morning the fire is 80% contained.
