Little Chief,

was that 2 spiders? As if you guys didn't have enough to worry about over there. I always walk with a stick waving in front of me on morning hunts. I may looked stupid but its better then screaming like a little girl and messing up my hunt.
Yep, that photo has two. They'll kill and eat each other. That photo makes them look bigger than they really are, but I've seen them with a leg span of almost 8 inches. They're not poisonous, but the bite is painful because they have a lot of power in their mandibles. They come out at night, and they're fast. They're not as fast as some claim, but they can run faster than you can walk, and they will chase you. They're not the danger over there, though. It's the scorpions and poisonous centipedes you have to worry about.
