Comments & ID Thoughts
I saw this 7-legged creature crawling around a gym in Phoenix, AZ. I’m pretty sure it’s a spider that has lost a leg. It was moving incredibly fast and seemed to be chasing the vibrations caused by my movements. I did some googling and think it could be a crab spider but I’m also worried it could be a brown recluse. If it is a brown recluse I would like to be able to inform my gym so they can spray. It was about an inch to an inch and a half in diameter, with a small body and long legs. Here is a picture of it. I also have video that shows how it moves. Thanks in advance!
