There is a South American beetle where you can pop the back of it and scoop up the insides for a tasty snack.

For the life of me I cannot find what I read years ago about it.

I'm too lazy to find images of my favorite insects, so here's a bumblebee (bombus impatiens) from my garden. We planted some oregano and its flowers are quite popular.

Jumping spiders are definitely the cutest, anything that's got fluff/fuzz is like automatic "no squish" for me...

[Bugaboo]

Raised a few black swallowtail caterpillars last year.

 

[Tiamat]

This is the velvet worm! They are in the Onychophora phylum and are not bugs but rather panarthropods! Extremely rare and not studied much due to their elusive nature, velvet worms live in I think Costa Rica and are most famous for their ability to shoot out two strings of a slimy substance that holds down their prey. Pretty cool dudes

Moths are the cutest fucking thing. We need more.
