I'm going to move this image to "Spiders (Araneae)" so that it doesn't get lost in the recesses of ID request. Experts who can confirm the ID check that folder regularly.

Purseweb Spider?

I don't usually try to ID Mygalomorphs so don't take my word for it ... however I think it closely resembles this Redlegged Purseweb Spider (Sphodros rufipes).

It looks like you are right on the ball. Are these spiders on the endangered list?

I hope you don't mind I've replaced your image with a cropped version. That's a good question, I don't know if they're endangered or not, I didn't see them on the endangered species list but I think some insects/spiders can be difficult to keep track of. Maybe one of the experts will know.
