Ambush Bug Enjoys Take Out, Not Takeout, Meals

Lying in wait the ambush bug strikes with its strong hooked forelegs,
holding its prey while injecting it with a paralytic saliva from its beak.
Using digestive enzymes the ambush bug liquefies its prey's tissues,
then its beak acts as a straw to consume its meal.
Isn't nature just wonderful?
