Bite Humans

Toxic to Animals

Tigrosa Annexa Wolf Spider possesses a venom that is typically mild in toxicity. The adult individuals deploy their venom through biting with their fangs. While the impact on larger animals, such as humans and lizards, is generally insignificant, often resulting in minimal discomfort, smaller creatures like flies and bees can be more seriously affected, potentially leading to their incapacitation or demise. The venom serves both as a defense mechanism and a means to subdue prey.

Rectangle
Bite Humans

Tigrosa Annexa Wolf Spider is not typically known to bite humans. If such an event occurs, it is generally in self-defense during unintended interactions. The immediate consequence of a bite, although rare, would likely result in mild discomfort with no severe repercussions.
