cutest insect

I'll bet that when someone touches it they'll die an horrible death.

I am ignorant in this field. If not an insect, what is it? [Serious question]

Mollusk probably (edit: snails and worms are mollusks)

I can't help with what it is, but I can say why it can't be an insect. All insects have per definition exactly 6 legs.

But don't insect larvae sometimes look kind of like that

Belly_Beanis [he/him] · 2 months ago

Yeah. Caterpillars are moth/butterfly larvae, which are insects. I think ant and termite larva are similar (but stumpier).

They constitute their own phylum, Onychophora!
