So we've had two more sightings of the mystery spider (yanno, the toonie sized one that scared the shit out of us...) so I took it upon myself to (urg) look it up on teh interwebs. I really want to know what this thing is, considering that besides our freak sighting/killing of it... Clara took out ANOTHER one in carmen's room, and Emzor had the pleasure of meeting one.
As far as I can figure, it's this freakish realative of the Wolf Spider that has decided to move into the south of BC. Zora hespera. If you google it, and image search, it's the one with the loooooong legs. Basically... We and Vancouver have it, and no one else in the world does. >_>
On the other hand, every resource i'm finding about it (and other spiders that look like it) say it doesn't bite unless provoked (though they didn't say if it was venomous or toxic...) So, on that note, i'll make sure I just kill it in one blow. -_-
bleh,
whut,
guh,
