What are the weirdest new creatures out there walking around on Earth?!  Watch this video to see the weirdest and strangest new animals that scientists have found!

Here are the most interesting animal discoveries!

13 - Dementor Wasp  
The dementor wasp, or ampulex dementor, is a terrifying little creature.  The most terrifying thing about this little thing, and the reason for its sensational name, is its behavior towards its favorite food: cockroaches.
It actually injects a paralyzing toxin into its prey's belly before eating the roach alive.  The cockroach is only paralyzed by the toxin, not grilled, and has to watch as it’s being slowly devoured by the dementor wasp.
Researchers named the newfound waspAmpulex dementor, or "dementor wasp" for short: The name was inspired by Harry Potter's dementors, ghostlike creatures that suck away a person's happiness and will to live.
In May of last year, researchers described the pacified, poisoned roach to Live Science Magazine as a “passive zombie” that submits itself to being eaten alive.  Ugh!!
  
12 - Goliath Birdeater
Here’s another truly, terrifyingly weird entry to this list of assembled weirdos from the animal kingdom.
This species was officially discovered in 2006 during an expedition to Guyana. It’s a burrowing spider, feeding primarily on invertebrates, though it’s also been observed eating small mammals, lizards, and venomous snakes.  Wait, what?  Yes, it even eats snakes.
Fully grown specimens can reach a horrific weight of around six ounces.  An almost half a pound spider!!  Thankfully for us – and for any other creatures too large for this spider to eat – the Goliath Birdeater is a species of tarantula that has relatively weak venom, which only causes mild swelling and pain for a few hours.
The only thing that poses the biggest threat to us humans is the goliath’s ability to expel hairs from its body. These tiny, nearly invisible hairs float through the air – and have an awful tendency to stick to the eyes and on the skin! 
 
11 - Louisiana Pancake Batfish
The Louisiana pancake batfish is a bizarre looking creature native to the Gulf of Mexico. The species was discovered in 2010, during the cleanup process following the infamous oil spill in the gulf, one of the most devastating ecological disasters.
The Louisiana pancake batfish’s name comes from its shape, which quite closely resembles that of an unfortunately prepared pancake. The strange manner it has of moving along the ocean floor is described as being similar to the way a bat crawls. Like other batfish it has pectoral fins which resemble limbs.  It uses these fins, together with their smaller pelvic fins, to 'walk' along the ocean floor. The pancake batfish feeds on invertebrates, which it captures using chemical lures.

10 - Acrobatic Arachnid
This little guy is definitely not about to help anyone get over their arachnophobia. Forget about crawling up your leg or onto your pillow. This spider does gymnastics. 
This spider lives in the Moroccan sand dunes. The spider hides from predators in its own little sandcastles; towers made of silk and sand that also serve as a little bit of relief from the sun.
When threatened, though this spider does something really weird: It breaks into a run that soon turns into a tumble.  The spider basically starts cartwheeling at 6.5 feet per second up and down the dunes.
  
9 - Sea scorpion
One of the most terrifying things in popular imagination since the Jaws movies has been the mystery of what lurks in the depths of the deep blue ocean underneath us.  Sure, sharks are pretty terrifying, but during an excavation of an ancient meteorite impact crater in the Upper Iowa River, researchers uncovered the fossilized remains of human-sized sea scorpions with both pointy and paddle-shaped limbs. The sea scorpions likely ate bivalves and squishy eel-like creatures during their day, roughly about 460 million years ago.
Giant scorpions crawling around the floor of the ocean?  Let’s just hope they’re as extinct as scientist say and you don’t bump into one next time you’re on the beach!
