Hi guys,

Could anyone tell me what kind of a spider is this? I just caught it and it's really big))

It's not a true spider, but an arachnid in the order Solifugae. They are non-venomous, but can give a painful pinch with their jaws. They also go by a wide variety of common names, including camel spiders, wind scorpions, sun spiders, and solifuges - see http://eol.org/pages/8547/overview

Thank you very much.

I handed it over to the local zoo. They accepted it and will take care of it:)
