I know this has probably been long over as a trend, but I wanted to make a little something.
My spidersona: The wolf spider (I'm pretty sure it's already been taken. Another name could be The Bolivian wolf spider or something of that nature, but I'm not full Bolivian, so I don't think that's a good substitute.) Some of the outfit designs are based on some of the Bolivian cultural fashion. Mainly cholitas
Hey sorry for not posting for a month! Had a big move that got in the way so I had to pause drawing for a bit. I can’t use magma atm like I normally do so I’m trying out Ibis again! Have a Percy to make up for the absence. :)
and ik discovering the fanfic sex pollen effect of the sephora spider sex cream must've been traumatizing but this is much funnier than the lemonade that just kills you
Hi, found this spider in a screened in porch, and released it into the yard. Thought maybe it was a wolf spider, but not stripey enough, what is this? Thanks!
What a beauty! Definitely a wolf spider, there are a ton of species and they're not always stripey. I can ID the species exactly if you want to share the location it was found.
Wolves don't purr, but wolf spiders sure do! To attract a female, a male will rub their pedipalps (small appendages around the mouth) together to produce vibrations. These vibrations travel through the dried leaves the male stands on, and producess a low purring sound! Check out the sound below:
