We call them Doodlebugs here, because when we were little, grandpa showed us how you could call them out of their holes by saying doodle doodle doodle over and over. :) Apparently our vocal vibrations simulate the vibration a victim might cause.
I remember, when I was little, going outside and looking for little holes in the ground to stick pine needles into. Sometimes, if you were lucky, you would pull out what we called an antlion. I don't remember it looking like this but it was still exciting.
