Insects have segmented bodies, jointed legs, and external skeletons (exoskeleton). Insects are distinguished from other arthropods by their body, which is divided into three major regions: (1) the head, which bears the mouthspart, eyes, and a pair of antennae.
(2) the three-segmented thorax, which usually has three pairs of legs (hence “Hexapoda”) in adults and usually one or two pairs of wings, and (3) the many-segmented abdomen, which contains the digestive, excretory, and reproductive organs. I want to share with you some things about Grasshoppers,

Grasshopper
Grasshopper is among the group of jumping insects (suborder Caelifera) that are found in a variety of habitats. Grasshoppers occur in greatest numbers in lowland tropical forests, semiarid regions, and grasslands. They range in colour from green to olive or brown and may have yellow or red markings.
Grasshopper is feeding on a leaf and learn how fast a grasshopper cloud can consume a farmer's crops, Grasshoppers (family Acrididae) feeding.

The grasshopper senses touch through organs located in various parts of its body, including antennae and palps on the head, cerci on the abdomen, and receptors on the legs. Organs for taste are located in the mouth, and those for smell are on the antennae. The grasshopper hears by means of a tympanal organ situated in the first segment of the abdomen, which is attached to the thorax. Its sense of vision is in the compound eyes, while change in light intensity is perceived in the simple eyes (or ocelli). Although most grasshoppers are herbivorous, only a few species are important economically as crop pests.
I want to thank the following personalities for their efforts in this great platform.
