The burying beetle takes a small animal's body and buries it, then cleans the soil where the body rested. These beetles have been known to remove the legs of the corpse, making it easier in the burial process. Tapeworms can reach 25 feet long and live up to 25 years. One human host was found to carry 143 worms. Hookworms will lay 5,000 to 10,000 eggs daily up to five years.
Many ants carry seven times their body weight.
One tiny species, only 12 hundredths on an inch long, can drag prey 39 hundredths of an inch long. That would be like me pulling a car with my teeth. Another super-strong insect is the rhino beetle. It is able to carry up to 100 times its own weight. Let's see, that would be like a 100-pound human carrying 10,000 pounds.
