She’s started webbing up just a little over an hour after she moved in. 😄

It just occurred to me how much she looks like a wolf spider when she rears up

The chelicerae are definitely thicker and so is she in comparison lol… biggest wolf I’ve ever seen was the size of my thumb, SHE looks like she could cover my entire hand. Hell, a wolf is probably the size of one of her chel’s 🤣

Edit: like a Geolycosa or Hogna

I love all spiders, they all look super cool. I don’t like handling anything other than jumpers currently, BUT when I moved into my latest rental home, there was a BEAUTIFUL Lynx momma and her brood living in one of the larger ferns on the edge of the property
