The giant weta is the largest insect in the world, and this is the biggest one ever found, she weighs the equivalent to three mice.

...and I think that weta picture is older than that.

As in, November 1991-National-Geographic old.

Though it's tough to find pictures from inside the issue. And they conveniently don't say how old this photo is.
