I live in southern Kentucky and I was outside on the front porch when I saw this spider. I was only able to get one picture before it took off. I know that there have been wolf spiders in the house and on the front porch, and there is a building in the backyard that has tons of brown recluse spiders. I don\'t know which of the two this spider is. I need some piece of mind, I\'d much rather it be a wolf spider. Thanks.
