[razehider]

in a perfect example of the endless versatility of mimicry, the ancestors of this Clonopsis gallica adapted over millions of years to become indistinguishable from massive sticks and twigs that attach themselves to white concrete walls. you know the ones

Met this fella last night (Anisomorpha buprestoides). Apparently it’s also called the “devil’s riding horse” and “musk mare” lmao

Heck yeah, I could totally see the Devil riding one of those things

First stickbug hatched from an egg!!🥹 She's so small and delicate that I didn't even dare to make a photo of her next to her mom because an adult stickbug will probably hurt her. But she's SO much smaller than her mom!

Here's the happy mother tho! Her name is Professor, and the baby is yet to have a name!
