Truly Monstrous/まるで怪物みたいだ/臺灣的猛獸

I saw this huge bug just chilling the other day.  (Or maybe it was dead.  I'm not sure.)  It was about as long as my thumb, not including its creepy antennae.

この虫は親指ぐらいの大きさがある。(触角含まず)店の前でくつろいでいた。

在有的店前我看到這隻很大的蟲子。不包括牠的觸角,牠還是跟我大拇指差不多一樣大。


And then the other night I saw this snail while biking.  I spotted it from about 5 miles away due to its size.  This time I remembered to include things in the photo for comparison.  That's my hand (also monstrous) and my slipper in the photos below.

そして、自転車に乗ったある夜、このナメック人カタツムリを見掛けた。サイズを把握する為に、下の写真に自分の気持ち悪い手と汚いスリッパを入れてみた。

然後,我在騎腳踏車的時候,看到這隻蝸牛。牠跟我手一樣大!太誇張啦!


 It's coming right for us!!!!
The hot, rainy weather brings out the biggest, creepiest critters.  Yeah!  The tropics!

さすが熱帯気候にはこういうの出没する。

觀察這樣的超級蟲子是住在熱帶地帶才得到的體驗。
