Trapdoor!
Trapdoor flap and showing the 'trip wires' this spider used to hunt.
When a prey crawls pass it's entrance and triggered the 'trip wires', the Spider will rush out with amazing speed to capture the prey and pulls it inside their hole to consume.
The Spiders usually hunts at night time, so I had to go back at night time to hopefully see them outside their holes.
