It is reported that each female poison moth can lay 300-400 eggs, and the pupae that conceives the mother moth is located very close to the spawning ground. The larvae of the poison moth have a large number of hairs and are easily blown away by the wind. By late autumn, the larvae have matured, reaching a body length of about 5 cm and a very beautiful body color. The pupal process takes place on the leaves, and they first strive to make a cocoon, and eventually the pupae becomes a moth.

Giant camel spider
If it weren't for the american soldiers who fought in the Persian Gulf War taking pictures and bringing them back to the United States after the Iraq War, we might never have known that there was such a strange animal in the world or rarely heard of its existence. It is said that at that time, a giant camel spider climbed into a soldier's sleeping bag and took advantage of his deep sleep to bite hard. Fortunately, the giant camel spider native to Iraq is not a poisonous insect.
Giant camel spiders use their claws to catch prey that is less than the size of spiders. They are known for their rapid movement in the insect world, moving at speeds of up to 10 miles per hour (about 16 kilometers per hour). The scientific name of the giant camel spider is "Arachnid Solifugae", "Arachnid" means "avoidance of the sun" in Latin.
9. Field turtle
Field turtle
The scientific name of the turtle is "Belostomatidae", "Big Water Bug" or "Toe-Biting Worm" is its more well-known name. The vast majority of members of the turtle family are usually larger, close to some of the largest insects in the world. All turtles are ferocious predators, secretly tracking and attacking aquatic crustaceans, fish, and amphibians. They often lurk quietly underwater and attach different camouflage to their bodies, just waiting for their prey to approach. Once in "range," they attack, biting their prey and injecting them with terrible digestive saliva, then sucking on melted prey carcasses.
The pain of being bitten by a turtle is one of the most severe of all insects. Their saliva liquefies muscles. In some rare cases, a bite from a turtle can also cause permanent damage to the human body, so try not to bring your face close to these terrible insects while drunk. Sometimes, when encountering larger predators or aggression – such as humans – the turtles stage "pretend to be dead" escape tactics. They spew a liquid from their anus, making themselves look very disgusting and causing predators to lose their appetite.

Leopard moth
The giant leopard moth, or tiger's eye moth, scientifically known as "Hypercompe scribonia", has a distinctive black ring pattern on its wings, resembling a leopard print on a jaguar. The clear pattern on the wings of the leopard moth in the picture is a warning color, figuratively advertising, warning potential predators that "we are not good."
