 |  Camping In Kentucky As I said in another post, my wife and I visited her sister in Kentucky and we went camping and fishing. We encountered an insect that I've not seen before. We were digging around for bait and I found this little bug that looked like a mole. The funny thing was that it was a bug with a carapace but the head and the front claws looked exactly like a mole. Have you ever seen anything like that? I'm going internet searching to see if I can find it and I'll post if I do but does anyone know what I'm talking about? | ||||||||

| Ok, I think I found it. It's a mole cricket and it eats potatos and is considered an agricultural pest. It looks amazingly like a mole in front but the back half looks like a bug. The picture I found is in England but this is still what it looks like:  I hope you can see the thing because it is very interesting. I've never seen one of these things before. Weird!
