I found this green grasshopper on red Zinnia in my yard, the sunny weather makes the picture look very contrasted by the scarlet Zinnia flower. In general people recognize grasshoppers as pests that damage plantations and rice fields. Whereas this herbivorous insect is also an animal that has various types of essential nutrients for humans, such as protein, vitamins, essential fatty acids and minerals. So grasshoppers are animals that are lawful for consumption even though they have died first.

Having species scattered throughout the world, grasshoppers are one of the most unique types of insects in the world. The uniqueness that is very special is that the grasshopper has a body anatomy that is quite unique because the grasshopper's hearing organ called the tympanic organ is located in the abdomen and not in the head. These insects have antennae that are almost always shorter than their bodies and also have a short ovipositor. So that the grasshopper can hear the sounds made by his friends.

The grasshoppers are not rare animals, grasshoppers can be found anywhere, such as in forests, gardens, rice fields, or even our yard. Even often found in rural areas, grasshoppers become local children's toys. The grasshopper makes a sound by rubbing its hind legs against its belly. When flying the grasshopper can also make a very noisy sound because its wings rub against each other. Grasshoppers are usually brown, green or black. They have big hind legs that help them jump long distances from grass to grass, that's why in English grasshoppers are called Grasshoppers.
