My brother challenged the authenticity of that. Tsk. Tsk.
That is amazingly scary... Is it venomous?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Nope...it can't sting or so:
'Mecoptera are sometimes called scorpionflies after their largest non-flea family, Panorpidae, in which the males have enlarged genitals that look similar to the stinger of a scorpion.'
