Jerusalem Cricket

Big Jerusalem Cricket that was wandering around the garage. Seems to be in rough shape, but does a credible acting job. Music from http://www.thomasdimuzio.com/ (Thanks Tom!)

i was raised to believe these we're lethal.

in spanish they are known as "ninos de la tierra" or children of the dirt. because they cry like children, im told.

I found one crawling in my garage and it scared the hell out of me, until my husband squished it thinking it was a larger termite. He was saying "Oh crap, termites!".

I wasn't convinced that a termite could get that big around here so I came online to prove whether it was or not. It took me forever identifying it.

It now doesn't scare me so bad reading up on it. But they are sure ugly SOB's.
