Why Bugs Are Not Huge
Hey man, what happened to all those giant monster-bugs we had in the good old days?
The reason has to do with a bottleneck that occurs in insects air pipes as they become humongous, new research shows. In the Paleozoic Era, insects were able to overcome the bottleneck due to a high-oxygen atmosphere.

So what they need to do now is create an oxygen-rich bubble and grow some huge bugs!
