The insects i saw looked as if they were crying/been crying.in future ill just watch them.

powerman the insects traveled from america to singapore on foot,or wing.

the distressed insects i saw were from england.i was in turkey.

Answer 1

yeah i bring them all home!

whether they look sad/lonely or not! and not just from holiday! i lift anything that moves from the street, i feel its our duty to keep the wildlife safe! even if that means taking away the "wild" part of their life.

if their too fast for u i suggest u spray something like deoderant/fly spray in their direction, not too much to kill them just enough to stun them!

good luck

Answer 2

i have had holidays abroad and in Britain with my kids in the last couple of years and can say wholeheartedly that the children loved so much more the foreign ones. it is so much more of an adventure and far from the flight being stressful it is the children's favourite party as it is exciting and rare. they get in the car several times a week so a car journey for 1 hour to a holiday camp in wales is not that special. (not that they are ungrateful)!! also it is not only the adults who relax more in the sun abroad. i find that when in the sun and with people of different nationalities my boys do not bicker or irritate each other at all and they play lovely together. after a foreign holiday they always seem more bonded although unfortunately this only last a few weeks before the arguing starts again!!!

Answer 3

Never bring home insects from a foriegn country-that has occured with some special frog species and now they have multiplide terribly and have killed another species of frogs and nothing people have tried seems to both the foriegn frog. Can't remember where in U.S. this occured but it was recent and on the internet.

Some animals and insects and birds are unique to that country and if they don't live here, they weren't meant to be in this country.

I am curious-how does a small insect look confused or lost or lonely! You have got to be kidding. They naturally roam around. leave them be. please.

Answer 4

I run a rescue centre for lost insects, or so all the insects, lizards and spiders here seem to think!! Every night there are new ones queueing up outside my door, there must be a sign somewhere, but i have yet to find it!

If you are ever in Kos, just direct them to my house, it's where all the bloody rest like to hang out!!

Answer 5

First, how do you know it's lost/lonely/confused?

Second, do you really want to be the person who introduced what innocently looked like a lost bug (and now more lost because you took it to where you live) and inadventantly brought down an entire ecosystem?

Answer 6

why should it be lost?????
it knows its way cos if u were from singapore to america and that insect is from america, it woulndnt be lost
how can an insect fly all the way to america from singapore???

Answer 7

I'll pick it up and put it at wherever there is other insect

he would still live a lonely life if he stays with me lol

Answer 8

I would care for it until I set foot on land,that's the time I'll let it go

Answer 9

No, I only have room in my heart for lonely/lost/confused rocks/pebbles.

Answer 10

I would pick it up and carry it to a safe place where it wouldn't get squashed.
