What’s this bug???
Hello..
I am a pilot with Canadian Helicopters in Moosonee, Ontario, on the coast of James Bay. This is a beetle/bug/creature that regularly visits us here..it is quite menacing-looking. Do you know what it is? Does it bite? Enquiring minds want to know :) Thanks

Hi Walter,
Luckily you didn’t use your foot for scale or the Giant Water Bug, also known as a Toe-Biter, may have taken a chomp. These aquatic True Bugs also fly very well.
