Wow! And at the same time, ick! It looks huge!
|
That is way cool. Thanks, I never saw a bug like that.
|
It's beak pierces its prey, which is the equivalent in size of a deer being pierced by a traffic cone, then it liquifies preys organs and sucks them dry.
It has some nasty habits! |
Does it sting humans? That's one ugly insect.

Thanks for sharing that, I guess! Seriously, that thing looks more like a mosquito, or hybrid of that and a fly. Interesting what nature can concoct! Wondering, with a “beak” like that if it can sting humans, like mosquitoes and some flies do.

Looks like the offspring of a Praying Mantis and a Tarantula
|
I Noticed It has Kool sunglasses on.
|
what do they steal?

A bug recently flew into my sister's eye and actually broke a blood vessel. She saw the eye doctor yesterday and examined it. Fortunately there was no infection from it.
|
“What do they steal?” Lol....great comment.
Never seen a fly so close up. |
