A photo coming out from Australia (it is insects, where else do you expect it to come from anyway?) has gone viral for all the right reasons.

The picture that has been going viral on the social media shows a wasp dragging a huntsman spider that is way greater than its size, to its dean to feast on it and the spider is still alive.

This picture that was taken in Bronte, Sydney shows this orange wasp taking the paralyzed huntsman spider away. This particular species of wasp can immobilizes a spider it is praying on with a sting.

The female wasps that kill the spiders use the body of the spider as an alive host. The wasp lays their egg inside the body of an alive spider. The egg then hatches and the larva that is still inside the spider eats the spider from inside still while it is alive.

Wasps are incredibly strong and they can drag something three times their weight.

The astonishing image was posted on Reddit on Wednesday and since then it has been shared over 37,000 times because it is something we do not get to see every day, right?

One user commented, “I am glad I am in the US and these insects cannot reach me here and hurt me.”
