Hapalopus sp. columbia

I've had this little one for a week now. She is an interesting spider to observe.

I have two of them and they are very interesting. Their speed is something to watch out for especially during rehousing. Some say they behave more like a wolf spider than a tarantula and I agree.

She definitely is a fast one. I've already rehoused her and almost lost her in the process. In my research before I got her I read about them being fast, but I was not prepared for how fast. Other than the speed issues I absolutely adore her.

I almost lost one to rehousing too. It's the only time that's ever happened to me. Next rehouse will be in the bathtub for sure with these guys. I agree, fascinating tarantulas for sure.

+1. Run like Lycosa's, and look a lot like them too. Great species that I wish I would have gotten sooner (got my first this summer).
