Incredible insects: record-breakers

Science · Insects & Minibeasts · conceptual

Incredible insects — record-breakers and superpowers. Dung beetles are the strongest animals relative to body weight. Dragonflies are among the fastest flying insects. Fleas can jump over 150 times their own body length. Bombardier beetles spray boiling chemicals. The 'wow factor' of the insect world.

What mastery looks like

  • Name at least three insect record-breakers and their extreme abilities such as dung beetle strength or flea jumping
  • Compare an insect's ability to a human scale, for example a flea's jump would be like a person leaping over a skyscraper
  • Explain why being very small helps insects achieve extreme feats of strength or speed relative to their size

Check your understanding

Can Incredible insects: record-breakers tell you about insect record-breakers — like which insect is the world's strongest for its size, or which one can jump the farthest?
