(Video) Fascinating Facts About a Wolf Spider That Will Remind Preppers to Stay Away From This Creepy Crawly Creature

As preppers, it is important that we remember we not only have to watch out for what other humans might do during a collapse. We also need to be aware of our surroundings and all the creatures we might be living next to. As this video from FrancisChee Films shows us, even the small creatures in the grass such as wolf spiders can be quite threatening. If you know more about them you can better avoid them and any encounters with them!

These wolf spiders are crafty and use their powerful, strong mouths to make their already wide burrow hole even wider even when the ground is muddy and soft.

In addition to their strong months, they don't need a web to catch any prey because they are super fast. They also have excellent eyesight and spines covering their legs.

If you happen to see one of their homes in the grass while bugging out, steer clear, they may be fascinating, but you wouldn't want to mess with them when living off the land!

    tarantulas are fascinating creatures! most are very docile..if they break a leg they will mentally cut off blood supply to it til it falls off and the next time they shed their body..they will have a new leg!! tlhey can numb their prey while they eat it bc they only eat live food.

    My kids called them “friend spiders” and fed them ants right out of their hands in their outdoor webs. I took videos. Fun daze.
