Jerusalem Cricket

Stenopelmatus sp.

Description:

This insect is brown with black stripes on the abdomen.

Habitat:

It was drowning in water runoff after I washed off the patio. It was in pretty bad shape but was still moving a little :( I later went back and it was crawling around so I took a video.

Yay! I went back outside to check on it and it was crawling around! It's not 100% but is much better than when I found it! I added video :-D
