This is apparently the largest known insect in the world, with a seven-inch wingspan. It is only found on a small island off New Zealand. Oddly enough, it's kind of cute. Maybe it's the way it's sitting up on its hind legs and eating a carrot like a bunny with an exoskeleton.
Yup, not near as cute down on all sixes. Ew.
