Re: Wolf Spiders!!!!

I know! And they're called camel spiders because they eat camels whole and that's 100% true that is.

they are called camel spiders because they attach themselves to camel and burrow into their stomachs and eat them from the inside out.
They can run up to 10 miles per hour and can jump up to 6 feet !!!
