Pictxterowner 3 D sbs

I've captured a mature female Red Velvet Ant, a Hornet or Wasp without wings. But I only shoot for 3D SBS Technology.
It requires the subject be still and this bug will not cooperate.
I don't think 2 D photos would justify letting the insect die because there are already many great micro photos on line.
I've read about stacking and seems the same would apply the insect would need to be euthanized.
Should I release the Specimen or not?

I don't freeze or kill. Does it make it tougher? yeah. I'm not criticizing those who do-- I've just opted not to.

Check out f/stop22's stacked Jumper shots. These are in the field with a live critter that move-- so it can be done.

I have one that lives in my car. He is a good boy, I use him for Facebook and YouTube.
It would be less complicated if I simply had to adjust the focus in steps without moving the camera. For a perfect 3 D photo I need to clear up this problem with shallow depth of field.
But the action of moving the camera is what prompts the insect to react.
Are there examples of stacking AND moving the camera to repeat the process? Wanted dead or alive.
In this example (life size) I want the leaf under his antennae to come into focus should I choose to look at it.
It is offset from the insect so we can not view them both at the same time real life or true 3 D meaning if it is Chrystal clear it will appear out of focus because we are focused on a different field within our range of focus.
When I do focus on the leaf as is directly under the antennae (cross eyed view) blurry or not the antennae does go out of focus as it should.

Please find another way to capture these creatures. Even sticking them in a refrigerator to slow them down seems wrong to me. If I can't find something that stays put, I move on. It's about showing others how skillful you are, not being Lord of The Flies. How would you like to be frozen or killed for someone's hobby?
Try f/stop22's method and use a speedflash.
Also... a 105mm lens lets you keep your distance and not scare the insect so much.
