[00:00.000] | This is Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano and Hawaii's tallest mountain. |
[00:07:130] | Incredibly for a tropical island, its peak is covered with snow. |
[00:12.070] | Little can survive at such freezing heights. Bugs blown up here don't stand a chance. |
[00:19.080] | Stunned or trapped in snow, they slowly die. |
[00:23.470] | But not everything succumbs to the cold. |
[00:27.580] | |
[00:31.270] | Their cells are filled with a special kind of antifreeze that allows them to live around the snow line. |
[00:37.670] | Originally, wekiu bugs were seed-eating vegetarians, but their descendants have adapted to this hostile environment. |
[00:45.720] | Now with a taste for blood, they are the Pacific's own vampire bugs. |
[00:51.890] | Needle-sharp mouthparts pierce their dead and dying victims before they suck out anything that's left inside. |
