Description
Wolf spiders are superb mommies! They carry their egg sack attached to their abdomen until the babies hatch, then they carry the spiderlings until they can fend for themselves. Here you see the babies and egg sack.

This was one of the first photos I took after retirement. I've always like it because of the Mommy spider carrying her babies.
