The bugs in Japan are enormous. I saw a few roaches that rival those here in Houston. This particular beetle was a brilliant green color, but I'm not sure that shows up in this picture. I saw a lot of toy versions of this exact same bug. Apparently, children like to play with these by putting them on their clothes. A girl in our group tried it out, only to have the little monster start secreting something green colored on her shirt!
