Well that's about the cutest thing imaginable...

Has anyone ever heard the sound of the velvet ant or 'cow ant'? All over Texas- If you pin one down they squeak similarly...real cute until you don't heed the squeak and pick one up-Their stings' worse than a wasp's-

Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued - promote requested by chingalera.

Poor thing seems to be crying out in pain

Cute* maybe?

No. If it was a baby kitten mewing for momma, sure. But this is a bug being squished, let go, squished. Interesting, sure. But cute to me has a face.

Yeah...they're scary. They'll eat raw burger...or fingertips if you're stupid enough to let them.

Those are actually part of the wasp family, and aren't ants at all. Nasty things.

That's a cat toy if I ever saw one...

You'd think so, but he's barely touching it, and it doesn't do anything but squeak. No thrashing around, no running away. If it was eating, it would probably go back to munching between squeaks.

That's a good thing, can you imagine falling into an entire nest of those things? That's what I thought the first time I saw one as a child (I had fallen in many fire ant beds already). YOINKS!

I used to feed my cats live june bugs! Around june/july I would collect a handful and then release them before the pur machines and watch them play... and then eat.

I got the idea when they ran out of my house and started swatting the bugs like wild animals. They even growled at eachother when one caught a bug in their mouth -- stay away, this one is MINE.
