Mates, this bug is real and it's actual name is WIKI: Catacanthus incarnatus. Regrettably, that bug doesn't have anything like the graphic personality of the one in the picture since they also call him the Man-Faced Stink Bug.
Now ain't he a beauty. For the true aficionado of the animal kingdom, check them out in their mating position since then they look like tiny train cars.
Zen Yogi: the one at the top must have been painted
It looks that way, Yogi. Hopefully the little creature was dead by then, tho.
Zen Yogi: you don't know that, Silas
Yah, that's true. Maybe there's some way to subdue the creatures temporarily so they don't injure themselves trying to wriggle away.
Zen Yogi: bug anesthetic is far-fetched but the one in the picture isn't injured so there's one piece of evidence
Aha, Yogi ... now I recall using ether on the Drosophila / fruit flies used in experiments in my ol' Dad's labs. There really is an anesthetic.
Zen Yogi: I bet this turned out weirder than you thought it would ... ha ha
No doubt about that, my furry buddy.
