Crane Fly

Period: Cretaceous

Age: 100 million years

Region: Burma

These flies, from the family Tipulidae, have
long thin bodies, like those of mosquitoes.
They do not spread disease, but they are re-
garded as pests by people engaged in agri-
culture. The female of the species lays her
eggs among plants. The larvae that hatch
settle inside the soil and feed on the plant ro-
ots, thus doing great damage to vegetable

gardens and planted crops. Crane flies are
common in the fall, in humid places and
along the sides of rivers. There is no diffe-
rence between this 100-million-year-old fos-
sil crane fly in the picture and crane flies li-
ving today. This is Allah's creative artistry.
Our Almighty Lord Allah is One, and there

is no other Creator than Him.
