Marsh Wolf Spider
Pardosa palustris
The marsh wolf spider lives among damp grasses, sedges, bog margins, and wet meadows across much of Europe. It is an active ground hunter, chasing down small insects and other arthropods rather than relying on a capture web. Its venom subdues tiny prey but is not considered dangerous to people, and females carry their egg sacs attached to the spinnerets.
