Wow! That is a really beautiful spider (I am a university researcher with a background in identifying spiders/spider behavior).

Most definitely a member of the genus Hogna, though I couldn't say more without getting a look at its genitals (seriously, that is how you identify these things).

I hope you didn't kill it. I can't tell from the picture if it is a male or female, but it looks like it might be a male, plus they are known to wander a bit more while in search of mates.

Spiders in general almost never bite so it really isn't anything to worry about. Even if it did it would be just like a bee sting. The oft-reported "brown recluse bite" is nearly always something much more mundane (more often than not it is MRSA that has been misdiagnosed).

Yeah it's a common wolf spider, I've never seen them this big though so it was a little freaky. I put it safely outside. I think it's female because today in my bathroom I saw two baby spiders skittering around. I wonder where she dropped em al!?

I assume "East Bay" is SF? This does look a little big to me for that area, but I'm not really familiar with species on the west coast like I am those on the east coast.

Anyway thanks for sharing. It is a real beauty!

[Navarone]

SF is west bay, I'm pretty far over the hill in the east bay. It's a lot hotter and drier over here. We have tarantulas too. Hurray!

I'd be moving out asap!
