How Large is a Wolf Spider?

Wolf spiders are known for their hairy legs and large bodies. They are found in open fields and grasslands prairies. They live for up to two years. They feed on frogs, lizards, and smaller mice. They are not poisonous, and will not harm humans.

Wolf spiders have eight eyes arranged in three rows. Their front row has four small eyes, and the back row has two medium-sized eyes.

Wolf spiders are primarily active hunters. They do not live in packs. They tend to avoid humans. They are often found in wooded edges and in grassy areas around homes.

Males of wolf spiders have white hairs on their legs. They are attracted to females by their scent markings. The female will carry her young on her back until they are ready to hunt on their own.

When a wolf spider lays its eggs, it rolls the silk into a ball, and holds it in a protective case. Several dozen eggs are laid at a time. The baby spiders then crawl onto the mother’s back, and stay there until they are big enough to go on their own.

Wolf spiders are a major part of the ecosystem. They do not build webs, and will not eat people. They can be found in most of North America. They are not poisonous, and will give you space.

Although wolf spiders have a bad reputation, they are actually very harmless. They can eat hummingbirds and lizards, but they do not eat large birds or mammals.
