No, although large dragonflies if held in the hand will sometimes try to bite, but fail to break the skin. They have a lot of "folk names" which imply that they do (such as Horse stinger), but they don't use their egg-laying tube (ovipositor) for stinging. They also don't bite (people) but they are a fearsome predator of other flying insects.

Fire ants bite and then sting! One feels a prickly sensation as the ants bite the skin's surface with their mandibles to get a grip.

They are not able to because they do not have the necessary mouthparts. In contrast to other insects, the butterfly is a model of innocence.

Answer: No. Cicadas aren't equipped to bite or sting. They do have prickly feet and and a beak which can pinch or scratch. If they confuse you with a tree branch they might try to drink fluids from you or lay some eggs in you, which you would definitely feel.

If the device is applied quickly after a bite or sting, it is possible that Biteaway will help prevent the allergic reactions. However, no specific series of tests have been done to confirm or refute this scenario.

Giant African Land Snails do not have teeth. Instead, they have a rough tongue called a radula, which has special ridges on it so the snails rasp their food rather than chewing or biting it. You can feel a snail rasping you. It is slightly rough, tickly sensation, not unlike the feeling of a cat licking you. It can't do you any harm. Some species (possibly Achatina iredalei) have sharper radulas than others. Snails seem to rasp most surfaces they come across. This appears to see what is edible.

A lot of the pain and the skin damage of a paddling (or strapping, etc.) can come from the edges of the paddle, and holes add a lot more edges. I have a paddle with a bunch of small, 0.25" diameter holes that don't even go all the way through the wood. That thing hurts, and it can leave blisters. It even drew blood once. I don't like to use it on bare skin any more, though it's fun through blue jeans.

Yes — the venom sac at the end of a wasp sting keeps pulsing for a short period after a wasp dies, so if you come in contact with the sting you may still be injected with venom.

Unprovoked wasp attacks are very rare, a wasp will normally only use its sting to defend itself or to subdue prey. Many wasps stings are the result of people squashing wasps, either deliberately or by accident. Wasps are attracted to food (especially fish sandwiches) and sweet drinks. People have been stung while they are eating because they have not seen the wasp that is also sharing the food.

There were two Sting wind controllers produced for a short time in the late 1980's but both are no longer in production and they were rarely seen. Sting EW1 synthesized, electronic wind instrument fingers basically the same as a saxophone or recorder but can be customized with up to 2000 different fingerings available. Nickel plated instrument appears very much like a clarinet with standard woodwind mouthpiece.

Yes! Even though these animals may look cute and cuddly, they are wild animals. Even though it is more difficult to deal with animals that are aggressive, we want them to stay that way since it means that they probably have a better chance of surviving once we release them back to the wild. On rescues and in rehabilitation, we try not to give the animals the opportunity to bite; when they do so, it is usually done in self-defense, rather than the desire to attack.

Mosquitoes belong to a group of insects that requires blood to develop fertile eggs. Males do not lay eggs, thus, male mosquitoes do not bite. The females are the egg producers and "host-seek" for a blood meal. Female mosquitoes lay multiple batches of eggs and require a blood meal for every batch they lay. Few people realize that mosquitoes rely on sugar as their main source of energy. Both male and female mosquitoes feed on plant nectar, fruit juices, and liquids that ooze from plants.

No‚ the cows do not bite. In fact all the animals on the Farm are used to being cared for by school-aged kids‚ and therefore look at all children as their ‘friends’.
