It is the American green lynx spider

To me it looks like something a glass sculptor would create

It hunts by ambushing its prey and can spit venom up to a foot away

Their bites hurt, but aren't dangerous. Apparently they are abundant in Louisiana where I found it.

Some kind of fishing spider, maybe? Any guesses on what she’s caught would be appreciated too! Thanks!

I know these guys are harmless but that didn't stop me from mildly freaking out when I saw how big he was. He was put back outside where he belongs before one of the cats killed him

She’s even prettier from the dorsal view! Short King is still hanging around. I’m wondering what kind of egg sac or whatever I could potentially see if he’s successful - will she keep it on her web or carry it somewhere else or what? I’d love to witness some Baby Booties come into the world 🥹

My fiance pointed it out and I was really excited so I took a picture! I was able to get pretry close, but I didn't wanna stress him out. So cuuute!!! Wolfies are my fave!

I thought it might be a grass spider, but I think its darker and I cant see the spinerets very well... so I'm pretty sure its a wolfie!

I have two recordings. The first was July 2nd and the other is tonight. The bigger Spider is a known
resident just to the right of my front door. It’s been there for several months. Idk if the smaller one is the same one in both videos.

In the first video I thought they were very dead. The day after I realized that wasn’t so, for our door resident was very much alive when I left for work in the morning.

After seeing this “dead” state again tonight, I’d thought I’d ask if this were normal. Do they typically act dead when mating? I’ve only noticed the smaller spider close by when the larger looks dead. I lightly tapped on the upper web to see how if they responded, and they did.
