This is my preserved Bombardier Beetle that I staged for a focus stacking session. These can be quite nasty because of their ability to shoot a boiling, corrosive substance at predators and those...like us that they may feel threatened by.

Thanks, UTMike. Many of them would be right at home there and if large they would challenge any wild beast.
