The first thing I saw was the picture and I thought it was an overgrown grasshopper. What a really cool bug though.

Picture of said insect is already in another post...that said, from the article

She's called a Weta Bug and has a huge wing span of SEVEN inches and weighs as much as three mice.

Weighs as much as three mice?😵

[Cal166]

Jiminy Cricket?

 

[SunnyD]

Shouldn't it have been named "Whatta bug" instead of Weta bug?

 

[JTsyo]

Can it fly? Seems pretty hefty.

It's kind of cute! I think I'll get one as a pet and train it to scamper up the legs of any intruders. That would probably be way more effective than a guard dog!

You guys are a bunch of pussies.

I was expecting something bigger and nastier. Still wouldn't want to meet that in a dark ally

Or 1/12th the weight of a duck. WTF sort of measurement is that?

[Pardus]

Will it blend ?

 

[John Connor]

That's one fat fucking grasshopper. But I want one as a pet! 😀

 

[gorcorps]

Was gonna be a smartass and say "repost, read the date of the article shit-fer-brainz", but then I read the date of the OP

 

[Fritzo]

It's a bit too cute to kill with fire, so I'll let it live.
