Arachnophobia!

At first glance, this spider found in Adrian was thought to be a young tarantula; but a little research indicated that tarantula's are only found in the extreme southern part of the state. This in fact is a wolf spider (arachnos scarious...!)

 






The eye arrangement of the wolf spider is one of its most interesting features; they have four small eyes in the bottom row, followed by two large eyes in the middle row, and two medium eyes in the top row. 

They received the name wolf spider due to an early belief that the spiders would actually hunt their prey in a group. Some other names for the wolf spider are the ground spider and the hunting spider. 

Wolf spiders do not actually make webs; instead they hunt for its meal. They are most commonly found throughout Australia but are dominant in other areas that have approximately the same climate. They make homes by digging holes or living under rocks. The wolf spider will often cover the burrow with leaves or grass.

During the beginning of fall, the wolf spider is quite often found in the home. The reason for this is that they are looking for a warm place to live throughout the course of the winter season. Even though the wolf spider will bite, its venom is not toxic to humans. This spider was released and was last seen headed to another home down the street.
