Effects of Wolf Spiders’ Captive Environment on Their Locomotor and Exploratory Behaviours

Abstract: Here I detail the effects of the abiotic/captive environment of an adult wandering spider, Pardosa saltans (Lycosidae) on its behaviour. These studies focused on spiders collected as adults in their natural environment and spiders developed in the laboratory under controlled conditions. Wild-caught spiders were tested either immediately after capture or after being housed for 15 days post-collection. Laboratory reared spiders were kept in different environments: small or large space combined with the presence … Show more

“…Maria Trabalon [27] looked at spider breeding welfare and compared the body mass and locomotory and exploratory behaviour of the wolf spider, Pardosa saltans, between spiders, immediately after they were caught, wild-caught spiders after being kept 15 days in the laboratory and laboratory-reared spiders. The results showed that while laboratory rearing increased body mass, it reduced behavioural activities, although this reduction could be mitigated by providing litter to the rearing chambers.…”
