Cool story

Looks like a Lycosa, probably praegrandis.

Big species, really cool looking.

Edit

Ignore me I'm having an off day. It's Eusparassus walckenaeri, even cooler looking.

It's a type of huntsman, think they're fairly common out there but get quite big

Burn the whole place down, only way to be sure.

Looks like he’s waving.

Looks like a Wolf Spider.

The real question is - has it got some venom ?

:eek:

Soupy · 30 Jul 2019 at 21:00

more importantly ... why isn't it on fire? ... !!!

Someone get on the phone to JCB, time to sink an island!

Zenduri · 30 Jul 2019 at 21:02

Its a huntsman and i think this is the only appropriate response...

You disturbed its habitat so obviously it will call on its friends to seek revenge at night and disturb your sleep by having them crawl all over you, if you're a deep sleeper you may survive the night if not, good luck and sweet dreams

Lartyconshayo · 30 Jul 2019 at 21:20

Looks like a Regina Pater to me

Thekwango · 30 Jul 2019 at 22:58

**** that!

It's a huntsman only a tiddler though, the giant species can have a leg span of ~30cm (~15 inches to old folk)
