Grasshopper

Grasshoppers are insects. People also call them short-horned grasshopper because they do not
have any nose. We can find about 10,000 different species in many different parts of the world.
Like most insects, they lay eggs. Once the eggs hatch, they change into nymphs. They look like
little adults, but don't have any wings and reproductive organs. The outer layer of their body will get
harder when they grow older. Grasshoppers' colours are mostly green, brown, or olive-green.
A grasshopper's body is covered by a hard exoskeleton. It consists of the head, thorax, and
abdomen. Grasshoppers have a series of holes located along the side of the body. They are called
spiracles. Spiracles help grasshoppers to breathe.
Grasshoppers are able to hop, walk, and fly. They hop with their long hind legs. They use their
short front legs to grasp their prey and to walk. When grasshoppers rub their back legs together, they
will make noise.
Grasshoppers eat plants. In the ecosystem, their predators include birds, insects, and reptiles.
Grasshoppers' eggs are also eaten by some flies.
