One of the locusts in Madagascar. While in Ranomafana National Park we saw a locust in the rainforest. Our guide, who has been guiding in the park for 30 years said he had never before seen a locust actually in the rainforest. If the locusts start destroying the rainforests as they have the crop fields, it would be disastrous for many endemic and unique species that are already suffering from deforestation.
