First Wolf spider I saw dropped down my buddy’s chimney while we were watching a Redskins game. Sort of looked like a baby Tarantula, about an inch and a half. Biggest spider I’d ever seen. Friend pushed it with the poker, trying to move it into a trash can. That sucker set himself and pushed back! When we set it on the patio, it hunkered down a bit and then brought his body up and slowly swaggered into the grass. Spider with an attitude.
They are really awesome things.
I have some kind of huge, totally black, “velvety” wolf spider variant here and they are absolutely indomitable!
I’d swear, they make 8 little fists when you try to nudge them out of harm’s way.
