You're at home, enjoying a cup of tea, under a warm blanket, when suddenly you see a giant mosquito, no - enormous! It's long and its splayed legs are the length of a palm. It's clumsy and bumps into everything in its path. Despite its strange appearance, it's still terrifying! What if it's going to infect you with malaria? Slowly, without drawing the monster's attention to you, you get up from the soft chair and run to the bathroom, where you lock yourself and open the browser on your phone. After a few seconds, you can breathe a sigh of relief. While searching on Google, you read more and more about strange and crazy insects. For example, the stink bug with a human face. No, it doesn't stink - or at least humans can't smell it. Then there's the titan beetle! It's the biggest beetle in the world: it can be as big as your palm, including your fingers! Here is the Atlas moth, which appears to have three heads, two of which resemble the heads of a snake. These are also sometimes called cobra moths. There are an awful lot of insects on Earth, and the creatures on this list could vie for the title of "Strangest Insect". #discovertheworld Preview photo credit: Crane Fly: By PiccoloNamek, CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/..., https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index...
