Oh, wow...it's a big wolfy, too. 8D I love these. <3

Biggest one I've seen, easily that of a quarter. And they are fantastic specimens, some of my favorite.

... Hello spidy

I'll pass that message along the next time I see it

exactly how big is it? O_O

If I recall correctly, around the size of a quarter

Really? Well, that's not too bad then; I thought it was the size of a computer mouse. I'm deathly afraid of spiders, but I love looking at and watching them. Great picture =)

Thanks, I love the macro settings on my camera

And I am fascinated by spiders, such interesting creatures

i own like 30 tarantulas, but i think if i ever saw that in my house i'd scream and run around all girly like XD small spiders are scary!

lol XD I love spiders of all shapes and sizes lol

If thats itsy bitsy then thats some high res lol

Yeah, the macro mode for my camera is amazing. In actuality, it's around the size of a quarter, maybe a little bigger

Omg thats a pro camera. o__o
I thought it was turantula size LOL

Close to one anyway, wanna buy a pro camera sometime within the next year or two

When i put my Nikon in Micro mode it still wont take good photos.
But im sure thats just my poor camera skills XD

Well my canon has a macro and super macro mode. Although for this one, I had to use the macro. All it takes is practice

Is it wrong to freak out a squish things like this? I mean are they dangerous?

Well I can't say it's wrong, people do that because they fear what they don't understand. A little exposure and research can help get rid of these fears. This particular specimen I believe belongs to the wolf spider family. It was about the size of a quarter, legs and all, and they have a mild bite. It would sting for a little bit. It's been alleged that some species living in South America and Australia have a necrotic bite, and necrotic venom is very nasty. It spreads and kills all of the cells in the surrounding area. Although it hasn't been proven, at least to my knowledge, that they have such venom.
