Dasymutilla occidentalis

aka "cow killer" or "red velvet ant" But it is really a wasp without wings. mommy and grandma saved jacob from picking up this creature whose sting is considered painful enough to kill a cow...
he is just putting a harmless rock in his mouth

I had no idea such a horrible insect existed. I hate bugs.
