Another wolf spider?

[WhyTeDraGon]

Is this a wolf spider, or something else? I got the email from someone saying they found this in their yard, thinking it was a baby tarantula...but I dont think so.
What is it?

It´s not a wolf spider! It' s look like some kind of mygalomorph...

Thanks...but that doesnt tell me much. I looked up mygalomorph, and it says its a tarantula....???

Its some kind of trapdoor spider which carries a potent venom. Just my opinion though. No expert

hmmm.. I guess its a possiblity. Ive already informed them not to pick it up. I think they would rather I take it, but I may not have time to go get it.

Could use some more opinions though, although I agree it looks like a wolf spider or some kind of trapdoor.

Looks like a trapdoor spider, Ctenizidae or maybe Nemisiidae.
It is not a wolf spider, that's for sure!

Pretty neat! Too bad I cant take it though!

Is there anyone near San Antonio, Tx that would like it?? If not, they're going to release it.

Lemme know!

Looks like a trapdoor or a funnel-web... whatever it maybe, a potential bite looks more painful than your regular T.

Judging from abdomen to pedipalp size that would be a male trapdoor [ thats what I am assuming it is ] so it is most likely lookin' forl uv and would do best released.
