The Tiny Bear - _TNY_7564
There are two species of Trochosa wolf spiders in the Swedish fauna. Trochosa tericola and T. ruricola and together they are known as bear spiders. From this photo it is very difficult to tell which of the two this is, but at least we know it is a Trochosa sp.
This one is (temporarily) sitting still on my son's hand in the Lännaskogen nature reserve on a recent visit there.
