Short-horned Grasshopper
(Family Mantidae)
Short-horned grasshoppers which are also commonly known as locust usually feed on grass. However,
when there is no more grass available they will feed on almost any kind of plant. For this reason
they are considered terrible pests, causing a wave of destruction as they travel. For more information and
pictures see Locust.
