Crane Fly Looks Like A Giant Mosquito - Animal India
A crane fly is seen on a bowl in a house in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on March 14, 2026. Crane flies, often called ''mosquito hawks'' or ''daddy longlegs,'' are harmless insects from the Tipulidae family and are commonly observed during the rainy season. Despite their appearance, they do not bite, feed on blood, or carry diseases. (Photo by Soumyabrata Roy/NurPhoto)
