Locusts make some of the largest swarms on earth with billions of insects in one swarm. Research at Cambridge has identified swarming behaviour as a response to overcrowding. Triggered by increased tactile stimulation of the hind legs, transformation to the swarming kind is merely induced by several contacts per minute over a four hour period. It is estimated that the largest swarms have covered hundreds of square miles.

a number of you're thinking cicadas (like 17 3 hundred and sixty 5 days locusts) once you communicate approximately laying off their shells and flying vs leaping. they are diverse. i'm truly specific we listed right here are searching for the respond for each and all the grasshopper lookin' ones. What i've got found out is they are the comparable (besides the shown fact that there is conflict of words on which kinfolk of grasshopper it fairly is). So my new question is...which grasshoppers can swarm and develop into locusts?
