  • Jumping Cockroach!!!

    According to http://www.popsci.com - the jumping cockroach legs are specially adapted for jumping, an adaptation which has not been seen since the Jurassic period. Its jumping prowess is akin to that of a grasshopper. The antennae provide an extra point to stabilize it while jumping.
