@@Popirbyfirst learned of botflys when I found a field mouse laying on my driveway, barely moving. It died pretty soon after I found it, and after I came back with a shovel to get rid of it I got to see the larvae burrow its way out. Parasitic creatures are the worst.
I learned this the hard way when I was 7, after I raised a bunch of swallowtail caterpillars and wasps came crawling out of the chrysalis and eating the other ones. Needless to say I was traumatized
I actually had this happen to me when I was a little kid. My mom thought it would be fun for us to raise a caterpillar, but a wasp hatched out instead of a butterfly.
If like this kind of horror I highly recommended the book by Michael Crichton "Micro". It's exactly this but with humans. A bunch of humans get shrinked at get lost in a forest of Hawaii. They're now the size of bugs and need to make it back to base to get big again. But the jungle is full of creepy crawlies that do horrible things. Acid, venom, giant spiders, caterpillars, wasps, etc It's basically Jurassic Park but it's bugs vs tiny people. It's much savage than Jurassic Park though. Like this short insects are much more savage than a T-Rex that pretty much insta kills you.
God I love parasitology. All of this chaotic, hyper-complicated war-game shit can change EVERYTHING even while operating on this infinitely small of a scale. This is an active warzone contained within a single moth egg. If anyone wants to learn more about how --batfly-- batshit the world of parasites can be, i have to recommend the book _Parasite Rex_ by Carl Zimmer. Really great read for hobbyists, students and beginners alike.
Ha these are awesome wish we had more, a tarantula hawk would be awesome how it stings the shit out of the tarantula paralyzing it and laying eggs in the spider , or a mud dauber that does kind of the same thing
Two animals exist on Earth that when I imagine their evolution into the future it worries me, Octopus and wasps. Either could rule this planet with just a little more time
Ah yes. All natural 100 percent organic nightmare fuel. I suppose I shall have a few more servings before I go to sleep to ensure an... Interesting dreaming experience.
Good there’s a caterpillar that pretends to be an ant queen so ants take them back to their nest and protect them….as they proceed to devour thousands of ant children.
I had a parasitic wasp lay three eggs in me Apparently they mistake human flesh for caterpillar Felt like a wasp sting After hours of research the article only told me that it wouldn't work in my body at the fucking very end I was shittin myself
And this is why Darwin stopped believing in a loving God. Note that he never said he doesn't believe in a god - just a loving one because what loving god would do this?
This is from Ted-Ed, it is called "The bizarre world of parasitic wasps"
Thank god youre not one of "those"
That dont credit original creators
Youre good in my book dude
Ah. The other kind of "Nature Shorts"
The more I learn about bugs of any kind the more I’m glad I’m not one
Plot twist:
U r.
Look up bot flys. And Sand strikers
@@Popirby why would you do this?

the more i learn about insects the further i wanna stay away from them
Mamals and Avians are also horrific...
Wasp comes and effs things up again

Yo imagine if they fused into one animal
Supposedly observing parasitoid wasps made Charles Darwin question if there was a god.
That checks out.
Got very dark very quickly
Alt ending for the caterpillar in bugs lofe
“It was rigged from the start “ 🔫
Tell them a HOOKAH
Smoking Caterpillar
Has given you the call.🎶🎵🎶🎵😂
I heard it
what
Disney kids: "Why can't people live in harmony with nature?"
Nature:
These cartoons are horrifying 😅
Holy shit.....GIVE US MORE PLEASE!!!
Natures amazing
The War Within
that caterpillar is having a bad day
"one last short before bed"
The short:
"You don't seem to understand...this caterpillar isn't *yours* to parasitize."
-Omniwasp
And people still want to blame the "miracle of life" to a god they somehow claim to be all good and merciful 💀
Ridiculous, isn't it?
To people. Because we are made in his image.
@@stratigangames508 so not ALL good and ALL merciful, just good and merciful to some... Got it
People forget how the world became corrupted.
@@MultiFandom8isFate Ah yes. Woman eats apple and suddenly animals go Junji Ito on everybody ass
I've heard of people using these wasps to kill horn worm catterpillers.
You just have to plant some flowers the wasps like near your tomatoes.
Thanks for the nightmare fuel.
One egg becomes many wasps? Badass
I actually had this happen to me when I was a little kid. My mom thought it would be fun for us to raise a caterpillar, but a wasp hatched out instead of a butterfly.
That escalated at lightspeed-...
Bro was a group project 💀
Btw, farmers love these wasps just for this reason. Also, these wasps are the inspiration for the xenomorphs from the movie Aliens.
Even in this cute animation it wasps are still one of the most terrifying things to exist
Parasitic wasps are great to combat things like corn borers.
This is Eggception
Remember, if the oxygen levels of earth rise the bugs will get bigger

This scene is pretty much in it, but it's a person that gets stung
I envy that Caterpillar, at least some people actually care for her

more....MORE!!!!!!
So that one horror video game could be the explanation as to why the giraffe vomited.
(I don't reply quickly.)
We don’t have video of this process?
Ine more short today..right!? Last one for today for me.😂
I miss wtf 101. Their first episode was about this.
People: we should learn more from nature, people are so stupid
Me: I hear you loud and clear...
Damn wasps are crazy mofos💀
Ha these are awesome wish we had more, a tarantula hawk would be awesome how it stings the shit out of the tarantula paralyzing it and laying eggs in the spider , or a mud dauber that does kind of the same thing
Alien life is going to be fricking wild.
Two animals exist on Earth that when I imagine their evolution into the future it worries me, Octopus and wasps. Either could rule this planet with just a little more time
This is what inspired Xeno morphs
I didn’t HAVE to watch the whole thing… but I did… and I’m glad I’m not a moth who would lay that caterpillar egg
Well to be fair the caterpillars have soldier to kill the parasitic wasp
then the caterpillars evolve to feed off the parasites
You thought you already hated Cazadores
Dayumn
That's cool
Remind me of that rick and morty episode.
When girls ask, "Would you still love me if I was a worm?"
I'm glad I'm not a caterpillar
Ah lovely, natural horrors within my human understanding.
Talk about dead beat moms😂
Reminds me of that one movie with Adam Sandler and the alien.
Damn Nature, you scary
Well that was dark
Ah yes. All natural 100 percent organic nightmare fuel. I suppose I shall have a few more servings before I go to sleep to ensure an... Interesting dreaming experience.
Wasps are the assholes of the bug kingdom
Isn't there another parasitiod wasp they parasitises the caterpillar parasitiod wasp?
Ah, what a marvel of creation by a loving god…😂
am guessing actual footage either hard to get or too gross?
Good there’s a caterpillar that pretends to be an ant queen so ants take them back to their nest and protect them….as they proceed to devour thousands of ant children.
WTF broo wasps spawncamping now
I had a parasitic wasp lay three eggs in me
Apparently they mistake human flesh for caterpillar
Felt like a wasp sting
After hours of research the article only told me that it wouldn't work in my body at the fucking very end
I was shittin myself
So it got autoimmunity disorder in the form of parasites
And this is why Darwin stopped believing in a loving God. Note that he never said he doesn't believe in a god - just a loving one because what loving god would do this?
That wasp was a real jerk
No. this is too much, that poor caterpillar.
This kills the caterpillar
I remember this from wtf101
Wasps are my nightmare
I love nature 😁
RIP 🐛
Dam nature you scary !
This made me sad.
Hyperparasitoid wasps? There are more species of wasp than there are anything else
These creatures gave Charles Darwin proof that there is no omnipotent God.
This makes you really happy that humans didn't evolve from insects ...
HES ALREADY DOWN LEAVE HIM ALONE
It's fair to say wasps are assholes right?
another reason to hate wasps
parasitiod wasps make me nauseous.
This world is sick 😱
Do we need wasps?
Yes, they are extremely important for the environment.
Poor baby 😢
And this is how I know there is no God. 😂😅 Nature, you scary 👀😨😳
😭
Womp womp
Wait, what
And people actually believe that a loving God created this world. Wild.
Big sad ☹️
Polyamory? What the what? Wasps and caterpillars practice polyamory?
Nature...what the f
And people think abortion is horrific
Bruh
Immagnie being Born to die for your privileged siblings
Wasps are the worst 😢
That sounds like b*******How is one egg supposed to become many After the egg has been laid. I'm going to have to research that word.He said
