Wounded Earwig

One night, while I was out "slugging," I happened upon an earwig that was acting very strangely. When I looked closer, I saw that she was missing 2 of her legs on one side and that's why she was crawling in such a funny manner. Despite her injury, she was determined to get to wherever she was going!

You can see two stumps on the (earwig's) right side where the legs should be. Also, she's missing a few segments of (her) left antenna.
As yet undaunted, she pressed on.
