  • Ever pushed a cricket's head forward?

    They have soft little pink necks! :D

    Just sayin'.

  • Spiders are actually worse because they paralyse their prey before eating it. So you would be alive but couldn`t move whilst the spider sucked you dry.

  • duuuude.

  • the very next morning after this bug snuff film was produced, Jiminy Cricket, a famed member of the Disney voice-acting department (he voiced a diminutive character of the same name in the Disney animated film Pinnochio) was reported missing from his workplace and home under mysterious and highly suspect circumstances...

  • At least spiders let their prey die first. Rather get eaten by a spider than a mantid any day. All my crickets die way faster in my tarantula tanks than my mantid's tank.

  • soo true

  • Spiders are more. My phoneutria doesn't show any pity to any living being that enters her terrarium. Once she held a cricket in her fangs for ten minutes and just than she started to eat it...

  • Yeah I like them too ;)
