Beware the assassin

Assassin bugs use their proboscis to impale prey (insects and spiders) and inject powerful saliva that turns the prey's body contents to liquid. The bug then sucks up the juices through the proboscis, like a milkshake through a straw!
Assassin bugs sometimes bite humans when provoked or caught in clothing. My thanks to Paladian for helping me out today with this image.

My action blip for yesterday was put up very late. If you have time to check it out, it is here.
