EDITORS COMMENTS
Who needs wings when you've got style? Check out the South-eastern Lubber Grasshopper strutting its stuff in this vibrant photo print! This flightless fashionista knows how to make a statement with its warning colours and aposematic coloration. Don't let its cute appearance fool you though, this grasshopper means business! Hailing from the roadsides, field edges, and gardens of North Carolina to Florida, Louisiana to Tennessee, USA, this little critter is a true southern belle. And if anyone tries to mess with it, they'll regret it! With a foul-smelling fluid exuded when handled and a taste that's just not palatable for predators, it's got all the defense mechanisms covered. Captured by the talented Alan Weaving at Shark Valley in Everglades National Park, Florida, this photo perfectly showcases the beauty of wildlife in their natural habitats. The intricate details of this pyrgomorphidae member are simply breathtaking. So whether you're an insect enthusiast or just love exploring national parks like Everglades in search of unique creatures like our grasshopper friend here - this print is sure to add some wild charm to your space. Just remember: admire from afar and never underestimate the power of fabulousness!
