I got a bit of a question, and insect/invertebrates needs wanna help

What Insect/hard shelled invertebrate has the strongest stinger, not in terms of venom, but more in terms of what it can pierce, same for the Jaws, what Insect has the strongest jaw for piercing stuff, like metal.

Any specific reason? Im interested. My guess for each category would be:
  • strongest stinger in terms of what it can pierce belongs to ichneumonid wasps
  • strongest jaw title could go to titan beetle.

Let's just say I am keeping it under wraps for know, might say more about it later but for know you are just going to have to sit and wait, anyway thanks a ton for that info
 
I got another question, is there any animal recorded to have venom, let's say about a cup of venom, able to kill something elephant size, or bigger, something that's preferably a invertebrate. Also what venom is the most corrosive. For no specific reason 😉.
 
Above topics are interesting and I would like to know as well
Next few days I am in Arizona. I’ve heard some mixed opinions about the phoenix zoo, but the other zoo in phoenix has cassowaries and I’ve never seen them before.
The OdySea aquarium has really great freshwater fish exhibits that I hope can be apart of the hypothetical planet aquarium I created. Sow ASCO and Diamondback terrapins for the first time. I noted that there were at least 6 dwarf caimans in a very small habitat which I would rather consider a large exhibit. Also this is the second AWM I’ve seen in a large exhibit.
Therefore I think frontier should go ahead and allow more dwarf caimans per habitat and lower requirements for AWM.

I know loris venom can kill humans
King cobras and black mamba venom could kill something much larger
 
Anyone else been at the point where you kinda want to rip your zoo apart because you grew kinda unsatisfied with the layout?

Im battling myself right now about saving a couple things as blueprints and start from scratch lmao
Kind of why I redid my zoo map 6 times until I was satisfied with the future end result, I can't imagine tearing my entire zoo down when there is a sizeable part of the map filled.

Sometimes, usually though I get more frustrated with something not working how I thought it would. Namely paths.

Sometimes it’s also inspiration leaving me as fast as it came, so I start to play Planet Zoo then I get bored super quick and can’t think of building anything.
 
So are any of you joining the Goji center hybrid war, if not, are you willing to help mine succeed, I will post what it is in a hour or so.
 
Can you explain what that is?
Goji center, a youtube channel, is holding a competition where people can submit there custom hybrids to fight against there hybrid, indominus rex 2.0, and win, you can learn more about via there community tab on there youtube channel

So I am making a hybrid to fight there beast, which is this, a murder hornet hybrid, which I call the Carnage Hornet
(this drawing is a first draft and will most likely be improved later)

So far I used a hornet for a base, dragon fly for its versatile and fast wings, titan beetle for Jaws, green ant for improved smelling, Gall wasp for expanded venom glands, stonefish for venomous spines, diabolical ironclad beetle for its practically indestructible shell, ichneumonid wasp for stinger, the giant locust from jurassic world for size, american cockroach for a improved immune system, and as for venom I am considering a mix of Taipan, which with a single bite can kill 100 fully grown humans, and boomslang, which causes internal bleeding, but I am also considering using a very corrosive and/or painful venom instead, so do y'all have ideas for what to add to its gene pool
Edit: adding mosquito for its numbing salvia

This is fun :D

Some inspiration for your next hybrid creature?
