Moved from Wolf Spiders.

Moved for the experts
Moved from Spiders. I agree with family but the bulk of the legs suggests a genus other than Pardosa.

Wolf spider, Lycosidae
Hi Pauline,
This is a Wolf Spider. By the size, and the fact she has an egg sac, I would guess a Pardosa species. They are harmless spiders who love to parade around the garden!
Have a great day.

Thank you
Not in the garden, along a trail through moist woods.
