That's a locust. While locusts can mate and produce other locusts (already-made gregarious) , it's also a known fact that grasshoppers turn into locusts when the conditions are right. In fact, the initial set of locusts in any outbreak cycle is just a bunch of grasshoppers that are suddenly exposed to abundance of green leaves after a prolonged period of drought. The release of serotonin in thier CNS makes them to change from being solitary (solitaire) to being migratory (gregarious). This also comes with change of diet, colour, reproduction speed, etc. When the the locusts reproduce, the nymphs could be solitaire or gregarious. It's not really very easy to tell if one is born a locusts or a grasshopper-turn-locust by looking at them. But you can guess by comparing the age with the outbreak start-date. Rickmann:It's still consumed as a source for protein today. 5 Likes 1 Share |
