@MikiaBurkettThose damned things bite and not like a mosquito… if I see one I give them only the slowest death of poison to suffocate their spiracles no matter how they squirm to breathe.
@MikiaBurkett They have spiracles I believe, those which insects by movement force air into the holes to “breathe”. Which would also make sense why they become so erratic when the poison renders them unable to intake oxygen despite their movements.
Cicada after finally reaching the top of the hole: This was a triumph I’m making a note here HUGE SUCCESS It’s hard to overstate my satisfaction. Aperture science. We do what we must because we can. For the good off all of us. Except the ones who are dead But there’s no sense crying over every mistake You just keep on trying till you run out of cake And the science gets done and you make a neat gun for the people who are still alive. I’m not even angry, I’m being so sincere right now. Even though you broke my heart and killed me. And tore me to pieces. And threw every piece into a fire. As they burned it hurt because I was so happy for you Now these points of data make a beautiful line And we’re out of beta we’re releasing on time So I’m glad I got burned Think off all the things we learned For the people who are Still Alive. Go ahead and leave me, I think I prefer to stay inside. Maybe you’ll find someone else to help you. Maybe black Mesa. That was a joke. Haha, fat chance. Anyway this cake is great. It’s so delicious and moist. Look at me still talking when there’s science to do When I look out there it makes me glad I’m not you. Got experiments to run There is research to be done For the people who are still alive. I’m doing science and I’m Still Alive I feel FANTASTIC and I’m Still Alive While you dying I’ll be Still Alive When You’re Dead I Will Be Still Alive Still Alive. *_S T I L L A L I V E_*

A strange noise I once heard, turned out to be a cicada "screaming" as it desperately tried to get away from a wasp that was stinging it repeatedly. It was one of the most horrific sights and sounds I've ever experienced 😱
Fun Fact: Cicadas lack any sort of higher intelligence. They don’t really see bigger animals as a threat. So this cicada was probably like: *”Yo why tf is this tree holding me…”*
Are there insects with higher intelligence? I view most as like this with pea brains I imagine it's mostly instinct and nature not thought out actions in what they do.
@@spoon7053 pretty awesome isn't it? It's my favorite spider. It will sometimes study it's prey for over an hour before it attacks it's pretty dang scary
Cicada: NO, PLEASE, MERCY! Show mercy! I have a family! 😭 Human: lets go Cicada: AHAHAHAHAHA! YOU FOOL! Now you will taste the wings of wrath and---AAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiieeeeeeeeee
HAHAHHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH SO MANY PEOPLE SUFFERED AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
Paul Mark Wait who’s calling Elon musk Sorry I just don’t know who your talking about because nobody mentioned eny thing related to Elon musk Edit: I thought you meant Elon musk kid But you said Elon musks kid That makes more sense Xd
Cicadas like the soil and many trees in my back yard. I find dozens of their moulted casings saved for my grandson, who adores cicadas. Summer isn’t summer if I haven’t heard the 5 and 7 year varieties singing! But I’m glad I’m nowhere near the town where the 17 year variety, live and pupate! I only get a few dozen in my yard in Southeastern Ontario.🇨🇦🖖🏻🇨🇦
