The crackling lava ladybird

The crackling lava ladybird is a blood thirsty insect which is currently causing scientists to worry about the world and there country. The crackling lava ladybird lives anywhere hot like: Africa and Australia. They were discovered by an earthquake which cracked the ground in half and hundreds of crackling lava ladybirds came out. Will they become extinct or will they survive?

The antennae

If you touch the venomous antenna, you will have poison in your body. It is likely that you will die in twenty four hours. The antenna feel like silk and they are velvety. However, they can sting you with the sharpness of a needle causing you entire body to begin itching.

What crackling lava ladybirds eat

A crackling lava ladybird’s diet is simple. They eat green leaves (basically anything green.) If they were to come across a bin, filled with food that usually attracts other insects such as wasps and ants, they would much rather eat green leaves. They have this diet to sustain their strength and grow to their intimidating size. Although they may be small to us, these creatures are the largest of the ladybird family and can fly much faster than any other species.

The shell

If you touch the shell of a crackling lava ladybird you will turn to stone! The crackling lava shell is made from stone as the insect is born, emerging from active volcanoes. And touching it will transfer the powers from the mysterious lava. It is scaly and round, like a tortoise’s shell. However, you will immediately see the difference as it is a startling mix of black and red in colour.

The grippers

The grippers (on the ladybird’s feet) are sticky. They are sticky so that the insect can stick to any surface. The grippers are located on the bottom on their four nimble legs. They feel bumpy and strangely, they are not poisonous. In fact, they are the only part of the insect that is not venomous.

Legs

Each of the Crackling lava ladybird’s legs have a very interesting quality. For example, when touched the front legs will transfer ice onto the skin of whatever has come into contact with it. This defence strategy gives the insect time to fly away from its frozen predator. Then, the back legs, if touched, have the potential to radiate lava-hot temperatures, scalding the attacker immediately.

Wings

The wings are the most delicate thing on the body of the ladybird. They are extremely soft like cotton. Immediately becoming entranced with softness of their wings, many people have hunted the insect to take them for themselves. So much so, that now people have started to open shelters to rehabilitate wingless ladybirds by treating their wounded wing plates with aloe-vera.
