They don’t do that much anymore. Now the CSI crickets just canvas the scene with photographs.
Does the irony of all this strike anyone else? Have to have healthy live crickets to feed them to another creature? Kind of like treating death row inmate for terminal cancer.
Ok, mr. morbid.
Aside from water, name ONE thing that you eat for food that wasn’t alive previously, or currently, as you eat it.
Simple law of nature. To live, you need to eat. To eat, you need to kill.
Even light-fuelled green plants live off the decaying corpse of the sun.
Believe me, if our frogs and toads would eat Purina Amphibian Chow, we would give it to them. They don’t recognize anything as food unless it is moving.
