| And It Will Now Haunt Your Dreams… FOREVER! |
Puppies, kittens, infants: All adorable. And do you know
why? Because they’re tiny. If you start to magnify these things, then you wind
up with the substantially less cute wolves, jaguars and teenagers. Yes, if
there’s one thing nature teaches us, it’s that what may start out as an
adorable little animal friend can quickly turn into horror when its itty-bitty
mouth gets big enough to start eating your face. And when the little versions
are already creepy, the big versions are the stuff nightmares are made of. Case
in point: this ridiculously huge bug that was recently discovered.

Armed with huge, nightmarish pincers, this is officialy the
world’s largest insect. It was recently discovered in China’s Sichuan
province by local villagers who handed them over to Insect Museum of West
China. Several of these odd critters were examined by the museum and found to
be unusually large specimens of the giant dobsonfly, which is native to China and Vietnam.

The giant dobsonfly makes its home in bodies of clean water
and is highly sensitive to any changes in the water’s pH as well as the
presence of trace elements of pollutants. If the water is slightly
contaminated, the giant dobsonfly will move on to seek cleaner waters. The insect can be found in other provinces in China, India’s
Assam state, and in northern
Vietnam.
This is the first time it has appeared in Sichuan province.

| Holy Shit! Is it Dangerous? |
Even though it looks like it could make the heads of 20
elephants explode with a single bite, they are in fact quite harmless. The
female, whose mandibles are more functional, might nip if provoked, but she too
is harmless.
