THE GIANT THORNY WALKING STICK



The Giant Thorny Walking Stick lives in forests and shrubs of western Malaysia. It eats leaves. Its special adaptations are its shape, size and color. It is nocturnal and will hang from branches of trees between leaves motionless all day. The brown nymph will fall to the ground like a dead leaf if it is disturbed. If it loses one of its legs, it will grow back within several molts.
