Hi all its now 20:49 and i just finished taking photo's of this spider i caught moon tanning on my garden wall.He has a 12cm legspan(approximately).His pedipalps are hooked out and was probably looking for the missis.I would like to know how he intends putting those'stompies'in the female lol.I caught him and put him in a normal aborial enclosure to study him and shortly after put him back where i founded him.Anyone know what this spider is called?

Looks like a Wolf Spider to me. They are very common in Australia.

Funny thing is I've seen hundreds but never one that's eating. I have not been able to feed one in a cage.
