Seattle’s Burke Museum of National History and Culture Curator of Arachnids Rob Crawford identified the mystery creature as a folding-door spider.
“Their behavior is similar to the more-famous trapdoor spiders. They stay underground most of their lives which is why they are unfamiliar to most folks,” Crawford told Q13 FOX.
