Random news from the Archive The most dangerous predator on the planet 12.03.2017 Scientists at the University of Cambridge have named the most accurate and vigilant predator on Earth. It turned out to be the so-called robber fly or ktyr. As scientists have found out, no one has yet left this ktyr. An adult ktyr is able to kill even a dragonfly. The saliva of ktyrey contains a very strong poison, from which insects die instantly. While observing the insects, the experts used high-speed cameras that recorded the behavior of the whales before capturing their prey. According to scientists, the special structure of the eyes makes ktyr an excellent killer. It can target its prey from a great distance and never misses. Ktyri is a family of carnivorous dipterous insects of the suborder short-whiskers. They are active predators with large eyes and a slender body in dense pubescence. Ktyrs are distributed on all continents except Antarctica, they prevail in the subtropics.
