Not finding a place where it could ambush the approaching ranger from, the bug quickly dug a relatively small tunnel. Turning around, the bug entered the tunnel rear end first, and waited. The ranger called out to the one the bug had snatched, at first still casually, but then growing more alarmed as there came no response.
Using sound and smell to estimate where the ranger was in relation to its tunnel, the bug guessed the ranger was near it and carefully peeked its head out to be sure. Finding it was the case, the bug waited for a moment longer, then moved out of the tunnel by two paces, and lunged at the ranger. Landing with its forelegs on the rangers shoulders, the bug bit at the ranger's head with its powerful maw, fragmenting the upper jaw, and tearing off the lower jaw and a piece of the windpipe.
With the ranger being put in a position where he couldn't make any noise, the bug swallowed the bits it had bitten off, then shoved his body in the tunnel it had dug. It listened for a moment if any more rangers were approaching, then began closing the tunnel when it found this wasn't the case. After the tunnel was closed, the bug covered what blood had fallen on the ground with sand, and scurried back into the foliage.
