Did you know that there are around ten quintillion insects alive at any one time? And all of these insects have some pretty extraordinary skills! Get up close and personal with these insects, and you’ll discover that a cockroach can live for weeks without its head, an antlion will suck out the insides of its prey, and a giant weta weighs more than a mouse.
