I was trying to roll my bucket of bullets into the house when this little fella came walking my way, as if I pissed him off or something. Walks like a wasp...... WTF is it?

The first bug looks like a crawfish had sex with a beetle grasshopper or something.....the second, well, I think I'll have to look in one of Carl Sagan's books to find its home planet.....

(ETA - Bastiat had the comparison right, guess I need to read more before posting)

Nope..that's not a Camel spider...has to be a sun spider...

Either way, I would be running......to get a shovel to smash the damned thing...

FWIW, Sun Spiders and Camel Spiders are both in the Solifugidae family.

Put the mole cricket in an ant farm and see what he digs.  Might be cool.
