The dragonfly's adults were fearsome predators, preying on other insects with unparalleled agility. Notably, their larvae were probably quite voracious as well, consuming a range of aquatic forms. With a powerful musculature adapted to their size, if a human could scale up to a Meganeura’s strengths, they’d boast extraordinary running and flying capabilities. The sheer size of these dragonflies was supported by the rich ecosystems of the Carboniferous period, which afforded them abundant food resources to grow and thrive.
