Cool looking wolf spider. I understand why so many people are Arachnphobic , but there are some truly beautiful spiders.

Ohh shit I had a wolf spider on my boat once, it climbed up my leg... I freaked the fuck out... broke the chair and the window in my boat trying to flee from that sucker it's like 6 inches wide leg to leg

@Fernie have you ever had a 6" spider randomly crawl on you unexpectedly? I never did to that point and instincts kicked in... I jumped out of the driver seat, and up front to grab the net, hoping I can swipe that thing off with it,,, in the process I fell into the brace that holds a side of the window, and took that out

@Tryingtofindabalance you would drop dead if you knew the spiders I've LET crawl on me...wolf spider bites are extremely rare and no worse than a bee sting.

Interesting but 😖

@5thApprentice Agreed. Genetically, humans are not meant to like Spiders, they are deadly. Going against 100,000 plus years of evolution designed to preserve your life isn't edgy.

@pianoplayingsteve think outside the web steve
