Description

An older one... Since this is the only one of these I ever saw, thought I'd give it a repost... This bug was about five and a half inches long. Quite scary looking but seemed rather docile. (of course I didn't touch it, so I could be wrong)

I've seen one that was tan, about half the width, and only about 3 inches long, I wonder if it belongs to the same family. Nice capture
