[QUOTE="Brumble-Gum, post: 267495, member: 1569"] I made the mistake of grabbing the biggest Inch Ant I had ever seen when out Oberon one day. This bugger was that big I could grab it behind the head. Like you do a yabby. So being curious about all thing nature I thought I would grab this big bugger and see one up close. So fingers around the head behind pincers. Pinned to the ground I watched those nasty pincers opening and closing away from fingers. He, he I've got you you big bugger, so I lifted him up to inspect him up close. With fingers now safe from biting equipment I got a bit cocky and started to turn him over for inspection. As I was turning him over I could see he was getting really pissed off now at this personal violation. He started to throw his abdomen around. Look at the stupid thing trying to hit me with his bum, I thought Duhhh. Then to my horror out of his bum come the biggest sting I have ever seen. Yep, Whack straight into the fingers not once but twice. As you could imagine his freedom was immediate and my hand swelled up and was useless for a day. Duhhh. Be careful with these buggers not only do they have pincers they have a bloody great stinger at the back too! [/QUOTE]
