We have loads running around our house. I let them go but if my dad gets hold of them its not good for the spider sadly.

NOT SURE IF ITS THE SAME WOLF SPIDER I DONT KNOW MY SPIDERS MUCH.

Was your indian wolf big or small, Matt? how long did you have he/she? What is 'dwa'? and is there such thing as a Lycosa tarantula?

Has any one got any more advice on where i can get wolf spiders, any UK dealers, breeders, shops, online shops who are willing to post to the UK? Thanks so much for your help..

Might be worth PMing exopet. He always gets the true spiders and whatnot in.

Thanks Josh i'll do that. They are beautiful spiders, don't you think?

Does any one know how big they can grow, are they even bigger in hotter climates?

Thanks

Hi

I am no expert but I think Wolf Spiders are a small species and do not grow large at all. An uneducated guess roughly about an inch???? They are my most fave spider so cute

I'm sure someone will be along that has more knowledge on these great Spiders.
