"The snail eating is pretty extraordinary," says Rosemary Gillespie of the University of California, Berkeley, who studies the evolution of Hawaiian arthropods.
Indeed!
That is wicked...
Hrm. I'm knida surpised I haven't heard anything about that. Sounds really cool, though. Maybe I should hunt for some and take pictures. 
When I glanced at the title I mis-read it as 'Man-Eating Caterpillar'...now THAT would have been a story!
WOW......I thought they ate leaves and stuff.
