Beautiful bugs... I can´t believe they used them as fishing bait- I don´t think you could fish something more awesome than the bug itself :pac:

Really enjoyable article, thanks for sharing. I'd never heard of them before but I think they're quite charming. That video is amazing - hard to believe all of that fit in one tiny egg!
