9 Weirdest Bugs In The World

Hi everybody! From beetles that can support almost 850 times their weight to a killer that turns the inside of its prey into a liquid mash, here are nine of the weirdest bugs in the world.

When they’re not stabbing their opponents with it, they keep this beak hidden beneath their bodies. But they’re passively waiting for something to fly by. They’re jumping from plant to plant, hunting for any insect that gives them a nasty look. 8. Calleta silkmoth caterpillar Calleta silkmoth butterflies are beautiful, but their caterpillars are some of the most exotic and distinctively colored caterpillars in the world! Just take a look at the Calleta silkmoth caterpillar. Its body is a beautiful shade of bluish-green, but that’s certainly not its most notable feature; rather, your eyes are drawn to the blue and black spikes that pattern its body. While beautiful, they definitely don’t look safe to touch! 7. Red palm weevil From up close, the red palm weevil might look like he’s going into a boxing match, but these odd-looking bugs are actually fighting a much bigger kind of fight. These weevils lay larvae inside of trees, and these can leave holes around three feet long… in many cases, the plants cannot survive this kind of damage. 6. Filbert weevil Filbert weevils are tiny pests with strangely long noses. Maybe they’ve been lying a lot, and like Pinocchio, their noses have just kept getting bigger. Seriously, this thing looks like it makes up most of the filbert weevil’s body. These big feeder noses come in handy when they want to eat on their preferred snacks – acorns. 5. Australian walking stick Australian walking sticks are well named, because they look like, well… walking sticks. And they come from Australia. The shapes of their bodies might remind you a lot of a praying mantis, but they aren’t a part of the same family, strangely enough. One of the most notable features that Australian walking sticks have are their curved tails, which is an evolutionary adaptation that these walking sticks developed to look like a tree branch or a leaf. 4. Brazilian treehopper The Brazilian treehopper has perhaps the most peculiar set of headgear among any insect within the animal kingdom. Take a look. A stalk-like appendage emerges from the top of their heads, and out of this stalk there are four hairy orbs that always hang over this treehopper’s head like an umbrella. 3. Scorpion fly It’s a bird! It’s a fly! It’s a… scorpion? You wouldn’t think that it could be possible, but the scorpion fly is a fly with a strange appendage on its body that looks a lot like a scorpion’s stinger. Thankfully, this is not actually a stinger at all, but rather a part of this fly’s reproductive apparatus. But that doesn’t make the prospect of being chased by a flying scorpion any less terrifying! 2. Giant burrowing cockroach The giant burrowing cockroach is gigantic! In fact, it can weigh nearly 35 grams, which is about the same size as a golf ball. In addition, they can grow up to 8 centimeters long. In terms of mass, that makes this cockroach the biggest one in the world. It should come as no surprise that this giant lives mostly in Queensland, Australia – it seems like every comically huge animal lives there. 1. Hercules beetle Hercules beetles are some of the biggest beetles in the world, but they’re perhaps best known for their insane strength; some scientists have reported that the Hercules beetle is capable of lifting around 850 times its body weight! If humans could lift 850 times our weight, we’d be able to lift things at the order of around 150,000 pounds! 2013 Naturkundemuseum Berlin bocydium globulare anagoria, Anagoria, CC BY 3.0 Membracid - Bocydium globulare, Sérgio Monteir, Public Domain
