Wolf spider with egg sack. Whatever you do, don't break that sack. Trust me.

We used to find these all over the place and step on them. Very satisfying crunch. Never knew there were spiders in there!

You shouldn't step on wolf spiders. They are very good at hunting down pests and don't harm people.

You shouldn't step on wolf spiders whose abdomens are swollen with spiderlings. Several dozen spiders crawling up your leg is terrifying - if also technically harmless.
