Ambush bugs are small insects with very strong front legs that help them catch their food. They catch their food by hiding in flowers until something comes along that they want to eat, then they jump out and grab it. Because of their shape and color they blend in with the flower so other insects don't see them until it's too late. Ambush bugs love to eat bees, wasps, and flies. |
