Fast and furious

The green tiger beetle (Cicindela campestris; Groene zandloopkever (Dutch)) is one of the fastest running insects—relative to body size. It can hit speeds up to 5.6 mph (9 km/h). Tiger beetles are named for their aggressive hunting style. They have large mandibles used to grab and dismember prey—mainly ants, spiders, and other small insects.
