All insect life is so gross. Either they or us are not from this planet.

Even butterflies and moths?

Here's another ant close up:

 

[Golgo 13]

Youre telling me this is an ant's face?

Yeah, it's deceptive - they edited out the eyes and cropped the picture a bit to make it look creepier. Which is okay I guess? But come on. That picture made it look like fucking hellspawn

Those flappy things? Ugh. I want to live in a wipe-clean stainless steel world.

Antarctic scale worm

It’s head pops out of the body, then a first set of jaws open to reveal another xenomorphic set of jaws inside.

Why even bother searching for alien life, it’s right fucking here!

[Biff]

the vignette hides its actual eyes making it look creepier than it is

take this spider embryo

I dunno why but my first thought is when this speaks it just sounds like
"BLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLUBLU"

Something fascinating and disgusting I learned recently. A Praying Mantis will eat a bird’s brain.

 

[Rival]

Better looking than some of the girls I’ve smashed.

 

[CosmicComet]

That picture is so purposefully deceptive. That's not its eyes.

Its eyes are in the higher up in the back cropped out.

And seeing the responses in this thread...We've been seeing close ups of ant faces for decades people. They look exactly how you think they look.

Jesus.

 

[Lunarorbit]

That’s just the mouth area though…

Looks like venom

Huh.

I mean…

What… can you even do in Antarctica that needs that kind of anatomy?
This is an eldritch thing straight out of At the mountains of madness.

Although I'm no great fan of freaky insects, 99% of these photos can be completely disarmed by imagining them having the voice of Bob the (bad weather hating) Elephant from Little Big Adventure 2: Twinsen's Odyssey:

 

[GymWolf]

Look at this ant, you could wrongly mistake those for her eyes.

 

[Giallo Corsa]

I want the same horror style pic they used with the ant where she look like a fucking kaiju.

Did you just assume its gender ?

ReeeeEEEEEeee

Title this tread as NOPE plz.

 

[haxan7]

Ants faces don’t have any meaning other than the meaning a human assigns to it when looking at it. Humans convey information through their faces, including emotions. Ants do not.

 

[DeepEnigma]

Look at this cutie patootie!

And yet people still want to discover alien life on other planets?
We got some real freaky shit here in our own backyard!
