Weta-rex

Name:	Weta-rex
Abilities:	Swarming, can latch onto prey
Occupation:	Giant bug
Home:	Skull Island
First Appearance:	King Kong (2005 film)
Diet:	Carnivore
Status:	Became extinct when Skull Island sunk into the ocean

Deinacrida rex or Weta-rex, related to the Wetas of distant New Zealand, were huge 2-3 foot long prehistoric crickets that vastly outsize their antipodean cousins. Appropriately dubbed "Weta-rexes", they are ferocious, pack-hunting predators that make their homes in the caves and chasms of Skull Island. Growing up to a meter long, they swarm in huge numbers, and can overwhelm/wear down any prey they come across. They are even capable of shredding the largest dinosaurs to pieces with their shearing mouths.

King Kong (2005 film)

They appear in the film swarming around the crewmen of the SS Venture after the crew falls into the Insect Pit. As more waves of Weta-rexes and other giant insects converged on the surviving crew members, Bruce Baxter swung into the chasm on a vine, mowing down the creatures with his machine gun and forcing the rest to retreat.
