This post is largely not about tarantulas, but I promise to toss some tarantula pics in at the end so it's not thoroughly off-topic.

I have a captive-bred wolf spider which I thought was a mature male, since he had distinct palpal bulbs after his prior molt last September. ( I guess he was penultimate! )
