Rough Sketch: Grub Fly

The female grub fly leads a horrible life after it has given birth. Its own children invade its thorax, feeding off of their mother's organs until she is dead. During this stage, the grub fly aimlessly flies around in a near comatose state. Any creature posing danger to her is immediately confronted-and often devoured-by her children.

Male grub flies are a rarer sight, as they spend most of their lives burrowed underground. They only come up to mate, and most are eaten by the females when they are finished mating.
