Big-Ass Bug, Part Deux

Following up on Melissa's post of a big-ass bug, I remembered a picture I took back in July 2000 when I was living and working in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We found a bug that nobody could identify except to say, "Whoa, holy shit; that is one big-ass bug!"

If there's someone out there who isn't averse to big-ass bugs and thinks they might be able to identify it, click here to see it.

For those of you who are not fans of big-ass bugs, I strongly advise against clicking that link.

To give a sense of scale, it's in a Tupperware sandwich container, which is probably 4" x 4" or so.
