RE: Adapting to Change: Phenotypic Plasticity in Locusts, Humans and Other Animals

in StemSocial • 4 months ago

I've ever really read anything relating to locust until now and what an interesting piece to start with. Now I understand why they form a swarm. So, they only feed on their fellow locust as their own form of cannibalism or what? Then, how vulnerable do you think every locust within a swarm would be when they are busy feeding on crops?

        Hi @gentleshaid,
        Thanks for reading my blog and for finding it interesting. They will eat anything, and even seem to prefer eating each other. Here's a YouTube video that explains what drives them and how they behave.

        I didn't know any of this but found it fascinating as I read.
        Peace and health,
