Kazakhstanis are being scared by a scary killer bug via WhatsApp. Kazakhstanis are being frightened by a terrible killer beetle via WhatsApp A new insect has been found
“Be extremely careful and warn your children!”, “Death within two hours”... I, as a respectable mother, am a member of several parent WhatsApp chats, and every time someone sends a photo of a scary-looking insect with threatening warnings. At this point you can’t help but think: maybe all sorts of karakurts, tsetse flies and ticks really have a serious competitor?
Search in World Wide Web provided several dozen links to the required news. All of them are dated last fall. As the unnamed authors claim, the new insect appeared in India and is most likely the product of a scientific experiment that got out of control. And, supposedly, there are already victims.
“If you ever see this insect, do not try to kill it with your bare hands or even touch it. Upon contact, a person becomes infected with a virus that quickly affects the entire body. This horror was first noticed in India. Share this information with your family and friends. Let children be especially careful, because they love to pick up all sorts of bugs and insects,” warns one of the news aggregators.
And here is the following picture:
But the search for a photo of an insect unknown to science refers to images of a water bug that has been fully studied by entomologists. As it turned out, the supposed capsules with poison on the back of the unknown animal are carried by the young animals of the giant water bug, which actually lives in India, for greater safety.
– A person believes in what he wants. The one who has critical thinking And high level intelligence, usually such controversial news is easily verified, but, unfortunately, not all of them. Some people seem to actually enjoy scaring people with such fakes (fakes. – Ed.) others,” comments the director of the Legal Media Center, Diana OKREMOVA, on the regular distribution of horror stories on social networks.
She herself often organizes seminars for young journalists, where she explains in detail how to spot fake news. But it seems that with the development of the Internet, this kind of educational program must be carried out for the entire population.
– Any publication must give a specific answer to three questions: what, where, when? With newsletters on social networks, everything is a little more complicated, because the information is compressed into one or two sentences. But there still needs to be some specifics that can be verified, says the media expert.
Diana Okremova advises to be especially careful about publications that begin with the words: “Attention!”, “Very important!” and ending with the words: “Maximum repost.” Often such loud calls serve one purpose: to attract the user’s attention to something insignificant and distract from something important.

Users of the popular WhatsApp messenger scare each other with a scary killer bug. A banal search on the Internet reveals dozens of justifications for deception, but the photo still wanders from one chat to another, writes Karavan.

Scientists have discovered the new kind insects that are deadly to humans
Newly found insects instantly kill all living things around with poison. How quickly will a new species spread? to the globe, specialist s They can’t say for sure yet.
Deadly dangerous insects were discovered in India. On this moment Scientists are figuring out where killer bugs came from. There is a version that they are the result of unsuccessful laboratory tests.
The new species of bugs are tiny in size. They are easy to miss, step on or smack with your hand. At the same time, the “kids” are able to kill any living organism, including humans. A fleeting contact is enough to cause death. The poison instantly penetrates the skin, after which a destructive irreversible process begins in the body.
Experts warn: the poison of a killer insect is several times more dangerous than poison scorpion or Brazilian running spider - the most poisonous in the world!
The people of India are in panic. Considering that many Indians like to run barefoot, tiny killers are three times dangerous for them. But it is unknown whether such small monsters appeared only in this country. Scientists do not deny the possibility of creepy insects spreading throughout the planet.
Three of the most dangerous
There are enough people in nature who should be feared and avoided. Contact with the creatures presented below can take a person’s life.
1. Spotted dart frog
Small frogs (their size is up to six centimeters) have bright colors - from yellow to acid blue. They live in tropical climates in Brazil. One dose of dart frog venom can kill a jaguar, an elephant, or ten people. Just touching a frog leads to paralysis of the upper arms respiratory tract, arrhythmias and cardiac arrest. Vaccines against poison dart frog have not yet been invented.
2. Sea wasp
This jellyfish weighs about two kilograms and has 24 eyes. Lives in Australia or South East Asia. The sea wasp's tentacles can extend up to three meters. Jellyfish venom dissolves prey. A couple of minutes after contact with the tentacles of a jellyfish, brain functions are disrupted and shock occurs. nervous system and the heart stops. It is curious that it is dangerous to touch a sea wasp even a week after its death - the poison still retains its deadly properties.
3. Taipan
Taipans' teeth reach 13 mm in length, and their body reaches two meters. The snake lives in the central part of Australia. The poison of taipans - taipaksin - causes paralysis of the brain, muscles and suffocation in humans. Death from a snake bite occurs within 4-12 hours. Despite the invention of the serum, still every second resident of Queensland who is bitten by a taipan dies.
There is a lot in the world different insects, which, at first glance, are very harmless. Some of them really are, but the other half of their brothers are very, very scary, especially if we're talking about about an attack on a person or animal.
We were talking about the giant silkworm caterpillar, the bullet ant, the Amazonian giant centipede and the tsetse fly. All of the above insects are a direct threat to humans. Therefore, be vigilant if you are going on vacation to hot countries.
Human gadfly
The human botfly looks like a bee, but it has more hairs and fewer bristles. They usually only attack livestock, deer and people. The female gadfly lays her eggs in humans, mosquitoes, flies, and other insects. The body heat of the victim, who, without knowing it until a certain time, is a carrier of gadfly larvae, helps the eggs to hatch and take root normally in the body of the carrier. Flies commonly cause significant losses to the beef industry in tropical America, as their bites render the meat of cows destined for slaughter unsuitable for beef production. 
The larvae of the human botfly cause redness and swelling of the skin. In addition, the victim experiences crazy pain in the bite area. Sometimes, when a person is washing in the shower or somehow cleaning a wound, he may feel that something is moving inside it. The larvae are usually removed by a simple surgical procedure that involves local anesthesia. In addition to surgical intervention, the gadfly larva can be squeezed out, but this is done only in certain cases. After the “tenant” is expelled, doctors prescribe a course of antibiotics. The wound heals within two weeks.
Killer bees
The killer bee (aka the Africanized bee) is so similar to an ordinary bee that it is only possible to determine who is who in a special laboratory. The venom of an Africanized bee is no stronger than that of an ordinary bee, but this does not mean anything. These little killers are used to attacking in a swarm, and that is why they pose a huge danger to humans. They mostly live in small colonies, so they can make nests in very strange places, such as tires, empty boxes, containers, and also cars. 
It is known that these killer bees can chase a person up to six hundred meters away if they are in an agitated and aggressive state. Anyone being pursued by an Africanized bee must avoid zigzag movements and seek shelter as quickly as possible. You should never jump into the water to hide from them, because they will wait for the moment when the top of your head appears above the water.
Stray ant (African ant)
Colonies of wandering ants, in which there are almost 22 million individuals, do not sit still, but move to a new place every day. These terrifying creatures will destroy anything that gets in the way of their journey, so they can move for quite a long time, thanks to the fact that they literally eat on the go. They are mainly found in Africa and prefer to live in forests. Stray ants attack everything in their path, including snakes, birds, mammals and even people. They use their powerful jaws to attack. 
To get a good look at their future prey, these insects climb up trees and bushes. The stray ant is quite large and scary-looking. Sometimes it reaches more than 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) in length. Typically these insects do not sting their prey. Instead, wandering ants tear apart their victims with powerful mandibles. A lone ant won't do much harm, but given that they travel in entire colonies, you shouldn't get in their way.
Asian giant hornet
The largest species of hornet that has been found in the world is the Asian giant hornet. They live throughout East Asia, but are most often found in the mountains of Japan. They are known to be extremely aggressive and fearless. Asian giant hornets feed their larvae to honey bees and can destroy entire hives in the feeding process. These hornets use their strength and agility, and thanks to their powerful mandibles, they are capable of smashing both a hive and bees to smithereens. One hornet can tear 40 honey bees in half in one minute! 
The Asian giant hornet has a 6-millimeter (0.2-inch) stinger that injects venom strong enough to eat through human skin. In 2013, 40 people died and 1,600 were injured by Asian giant hornets after being attacked by a gang. They forced the local government to form medical teams with specially trained personnel to help victims of bites, and sent firefighters to fight the Asian giant hornets themselves.
