Wasp carrying Spider
My dad and I was walking on a dirt road at a game farm, when we saw this wasp carrying a spider it has caught. When the wasp saw us he dropped the spider, giving me time to video him as he went about his business.
I did not see where it went, but I believe he went to his nest where the spider would become food for his babies!! I suppose the wasp actually then was a female??
I hope you enjoyed this video, taken by me using my Samsung phone.

Thank you so much for the nice comment.
Poor spider, now the larvae will slowly eat the spider while it is still alive.
Yes that is what will happen, but it is still interesting to see!! Thank you for the comment.

Thank you.
The spider-hunting wasps belong to the family Pompylidae and they drag the spiders to burrows that they dig in sandy soil. I have many in my garden and they like to hunt the bigger ones, like wolf spiders and rain spiders. They are very effective hunters
Thanks for the info, this one was dragging the spider for quite a long distance, they seem quite strong!!
They are. I have seen them drag huge spiders all over the place, even up and over objects like rocks
