Look At Epomis Beetle Eats Toad : The Secret War Video

A frog is attacked and eaten by an Epomis beetle.The study found the genus Epomis is represented in Israel by two species: E. dejeani and E. circumscriptus. The researchers recorded Epomis sharing shelter with amphibians during the day, but preying on them during the night. In the laboratory, predation behaviour of the adult beetles on five amphibian species was observed.Senior author Gil Wizen says, "Amphibians are typical insect predators and their diet may include adult beetles, ground beetles in particular.

The recently filmed successful attacks of the beetles on toads and frogs brought new insights on the amphibian-insect interactions, and documented the uncommon phenomenon of invertebrates preying on vertebrate animals."

The lab results show that the beetle is a specialized predator of amphibians despite its larger size. Take a look:-

Watch : Big Foot “Knobby” We Saw In Golden Valley

5-second clip - filmed in Rutherford County on Tuesday - shows little more than a blurry silhouette running across a road, and a sound that Byers alleges to be the creature's "snarl."A North Carolina man, Thomas Byers, claims to have captured the legendary Bigfoot on video.

Byers’ website — where he initially posted the clip and his accompanying tale of the encounter — has him confessing every detail of the Bigfoot (“Knobby,” as he calls it), from its six to seven foot height to it’s stench reeking “like a cross between road kill and a skunk.”

But alas, the Internet loves mysterious creatures (see last month’s “Loch Ness” photo), and with word of the new supposed Bigfoot video spreading around, the term began trending on Yahoo and Google, with everyone from Fox News, MSNBC, and the LA Times picking up the story.

Big-Foot Knobby or one similar to it cross the road in front of the truck we were in and run into the woods. It came from out of the field from the direction of the creek and we later took photos of feet prints in a freshly plowed field.

I jumped from the truck and took this video of it as it crossed the road in front of us. At one point in the video it made a snarling growling sound and looked back at me.



I also shot the other video posted with this one while I and my friend Carolyn Wright were trying to see where it went to. I heard it breaking branches as it ran out of my sight into very thick brush.

If you listen to the other video you can hear me and my friend talking about what just happened in front of us.

All members of a pod of 107 pilot whales that beached on a remote New Zealand island have died.The whales were well up the beach and the tide was receding, leaving little chance of keeping them alive until more rescuers could arrive.

Pilot whales are about 13 feet to 20 feet long and are the most common species of whale in New Zealand waters. Whale strandings are common in New Zealand.

Last month, 24 pilot whales died after stranding on the north island.
