A carnivorous catapiller... if that isnt weird enough it poses as a stick to ambush its victums

Awesome,

it's quite fascinating the ways these insects have to ambush their prey.

ufffff, nasty.... but imagine having a 1000 of them on a farmers field, the best natural pesticide

I would have to say that is very cool video of this catapiller ambushing for a meal.

So, the caterpillar eats flies until he turns into one, then becomes prey for another caterpillar...
