I remember my collection of insects before, and my first ever collected was just like the one in the first picture

In reply to Sukhmandir Kaur. Yeah, I don't want to touch it myself.... I pick it up with pencils, etc. when the need arises.

In reply to Kristin. The pokey end is just for looks as far as I can tell. The abuse my kids have given it, if it could sting I'm sure it would have by now!

And to think, today I was not happy with my 5 yr old for bringing a wood bug into the house. That thing is crazy looking! Does his pokey end sting or is it just for looks?
I (and my tomatoes) should be thankful we don’t have those guys hanging around ; )

It used to be our job to pick those off the tomato plants as kids, I never wanted one as a pet, they still make me squeamish….
