Where did Hagrid get Aragog?

Hey, brother!

Have you ever wondered where Hagrid got Aragog the giant spider, aka Ackromantula from?

He's pretty essential to the plot several times and plays a fairly big role in wizarding history.

Because of the pincas.

But I mean, Tom Riddle uses his existence to frame Hagrid, thus keeping himself guilt-free

and setting up Hagrid at Hogwarts for the rest of his life.

There's no Hogwarts without you, Hagrid.

And people say that Voldemort didn't do anything good for Wizardkind.

He provides Harry with essential information on finding the Chamber of Secrets.

His offspring are obstacles in the maze in the Triwizard Tournament.

That's a phone call that I just would have loved to have heard, by the way.

Erog, yes, it is I. Domodor, a friend of Hagridz.

May I have one of your children? Yes, they can eat any of the champions as long as it's not Harry Potter.

Goodbye, friend of Hagrid.

Bye bye now.

His death provides the opportunity for Harry to collect the memory from Slughorn, and

Voldemort eventually uses his old home as his base in the Battle of Hogwarts and yet his origin is unknown

Sadly all we ever learn is from Aragog himself when he tells Harry I came to Hagrid from a distant land in the pocket of a traveler

I want to know how big this egg was because do you remember how big Hagrid says Aragog was as a

pup? Tiny little thing he was when he hatched no bigger than a pig of knees.

Well, an overall fairly small dog still kind of large for a spider.
