A grasshopper is actually a group of insects belonging to the suborder Caelifera. It is typically a ground-dwelling insect with powerful hind legs which allow them to escape from threats by leaping vigorously. As hemimetabolous insects, they do not undergo complete metamorphosis, but they hatch from an egg into a nymph or “hopper” which undergoes five molts then becoming more similar to the adult insect at each developmental stage. Such great facts.
