  • Watch till the end (the recording resumes after the Katydid landed on my niece's face). We found this giant insect in our back garden. We have later found out it is called Katydid. Amazing creature! Really friendly :-)

    She seemed to enjoy your company, you were just as much as her pet as she was yours for the day! Very intriguing behavior for a wild katydid, very lucky to have had the chance to find one that was not afraid and curious as to what you were

      Yes, we were really surprised by her behaviour. Sadly, we have not had a chance to see one of those since.

      @@outofthecity2021 I'm sorry to hear that, but eventually another might come to visit again, and if you really wanted to you could buy some ultraviolet lights to attract one at night and get some giant silk moths too, the only issue with those lights is you'll get a lot of other insects that you weren't intending to attract. But you could do that if you really wanted to see one again. Just make sure it's just the lights and not the ones with the lights and bug zapper built in

    Fascinating, when you think evolution 🧬 though, would you thank the Brain 🧠 - Diet intestines - Or the Molecular level? You could quite possibly give all 3 thanks, but any of them separately is quite a lot of credit. Even all 3 I'd fathom to say is too much credit. At the molecular level there'd have to be an astounding amount of awareness perceptually of the external world in order to camouflage. The brain 🧠 probably very small, but most mainstream Science claims this cannot cause evolution. Diet, even this is crazy because everything this creature eats doesn't look the same
