WOE202 Kauai Cave Wolf Spider, newly hatched spiderlings. The Kauai cave wolf spider is a mid-size (0.50 to 0.75-inch) hunting spider that has completely lost its eyes as part of its adapation to life in lava tubes. Instead of building webs, it chase and grabs its prey or may utilize sit-and-wait ambush tactics. Unlike most wolf spiders that produce 100 to 300 spiderlings per clutch, the Kauai cave wolf spider is believed to produce fewer than 30 spiderlings per clutch. Newly hatched spiderlings are unusually large and are carried on the back of the female for only a few days. (Smith, Gordan/USFWS)
