Adventurer Mark Moffett has found the world’s biggest insect - which is so huge it can eat carrots. The giant weta weighs a staggering 71 grams.
The creepy crawly is only found on Little Barrier Island, in New Zealand. The species were wiped off the mainland by rats accidentally introduced by Europeans.
