I was looking for a litter of kittens. This Spider just fell from the trees. No. I didn’t kill it. Got a picture of it. It still lives, out there!
…not going back in the woods! Hope it doesn’t eat my kittens!!
…my theory, if there is one, there are more. No spider rain for me!!!
Hi, this looks like a Cork-lid Trapdoor Spider (Ummidia sp.). They’re not arboreal, maybe a bird dropped it.. or maybe it’s raining spiders where you are, haha. 🙂 I can’t determine gender from this image. If it’s a male it’s likely searching for a mate, if it’s female it will want to make another burrow, so whichever it is it’s not kitten hunting.
