This is an ant lion. His digging parts are on the other end, so that he always has his jaws sticking upward ready to eat.
He digs cone shaped holes in the sand to trap ants. Then when they fall in he kicks sand out at them so that they can’t escape and fall down to the bottom of the cone where he is waiting. Then he uses those big jaws to suck all the guts out, leaving only the shell.
