1
House Centipede - This MOFO can grow up to 15 pairs of legs, could live in your home, kills and eats insects or arachnids. Despite the looks, it only grows to around 7-10 cm.

2
The Scorpionfly - this insect is completely harmless to humans and acts as a regular bee does, pollinating and buzzing. The obvious "scorpion tail", is actually its genitals. They also steal insects from spider webs and present them to the females as a "box of chocolate".

The Barreleye Fish - A unusual and bizarre fish sometimes called "spook fish", obviously related to it's transparent head.The head is transparent because the eyes are located inside the head in those green blobs. They point upwards so it can see prey or incoming threats.

4
The Camel Spider - basically a mix between a scorpion and a spider. The jaws of this horrid creature can reach up to 13% of it's body length! Not venomous, but scary as hell.

5
Botfly Worm - These buggers are the offspring of the botfly, which lay their eggs on people or animals, the eggs hatch and the larvae digs in under the skin. You won't notice until it's as huge as a over sized pimple that digs in your skin and you have to pull it out...

6
The Nut-Cracking-Pacu-Fish, Henrik Carl of the Natural History Museum of Denmark warned male swimmers to keep their trunks tied tight. They bite because theyre hungry, and testicles sit nicely in their mouths, he said. And its mouth is not so big, so of course it normally eats nuts, fruit and small fish, but human testicles are just a natural target. Its not normal to get your testicles bitten off, of course, but it can happen.
