Why is it that wolf spiders will scamper across an entire room as if they are trying to avoid you and then stop, just seconds from the safety of a crack or crevice, and wait, and wait, and wait. Are they staring back at you with eight beady eyes? Are they daring you to chase them? But then when you approach them and even stomp the floor next to them they stay right where they are in devilish defiance. Oh well, perhaps we shall never know, but that is why one of them is stuck to the bottom of my sock.
