Answer 3

Nonnoobawesomekid is right. It is a parasitic bot fly

Answer 4

Dont get Near that thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

U must live in a farm, right, it is not a fake. It is a type of bot fly, one of the most horrendous pests. They get their eggs under your skin and their larvae grow in it. There are many types of bot flies, like rabbit bot flies, human bot flies, etc. But if you don't want a maggot under your skin that will pop out onto the ground, DON'T GET NEAR IT KILL IT.

Also, you can tell it is not rubber because of its fine hairs on its foot pads. Only like million dollar replicas would have such detail. But it does look comical, but what it can do is not at all pretty.

Looks kinda like this, huh, if u dont believe me.
