We call them Potato Bugs in CA, aka Jerusalem cricket. AFIK they make no chirping noise. Except for a droning sound when horny.

per Wikipedia
Despite their common name, Jerusalem crickets are not true crickets, as they belong to the family Stenopelmatidae, while true crickets belong to the family Gryllidae; nor are they native to Jerusalem. Reminds me of these guys, except not as tough Mole crickets. ![]() ![]() The mole cricket is a member of the family Gryllotalpidae, in the order Orthoptera (grasshoppers, locusts and crickets). Mole crickets are cylindrical-bodied insects about 3–5 centimetres (1.2–2.0 in) long, with small eyes and shovel-like forelimbs highly developed for burrowing. They are present in many parts of the world and where they have been introduced into new regions, may become agricultural pests.

Story behind this pic?
Is that the hero that shot a little girl in nearly same age because she would not show him her puppy dog? |
