I trapped it because I had no idea what it was. It does look like a cross between a scorpion, a wolf spider, and a tank. It has four pincher looking things for a mouth that they spread wide when threatened. Really nasty looking things, but like onyx said -pretty harmless. I didn't see any pinchers or stingers either. We don't even have camels here though...weird.
Maybe that was a tarantula (sp?) Those are freakin scary as hell too! I knew I shouldn't read the link you put up! I'm going to be parnoid for awhile now!

Friend of mine was in Iraq for a while. He said those spiders will chase your shadow because they hate sunlight. Most people freaked out when they saw them and ran. The spiders ran after their shadow..
