Boom. A thermobaric explosion leaves silence—and heat. But guess who still shows up?
🐛 Blowflies (Calliphoridae)
- First responders of death.
- Their eggs hatch faster in post-blast heat pockets.
- Some maggots survive temps up to 45°C, especially in shade-trapped remains.
⏱️ Forensic Angle:
- Larval age + heat distortion = need for corrected PMI (Post-Mortem Interval).
- Entomologists must adjust for accelerated development due to blast temperature.
🧬 Cool Twist:
- Some thermotolerant blowfly strains thrive in military zones. Evolution? Maybe.
Booms warp biology — and timelines. Know your maggots. 🐛🔥
