Mole Cricket

Gryllotalpidae

Description:

Head resembled a lobster? Small front legs that seemed like they were for digging? Was a quick mover, but had somewhat of an awkward walk.

Notes:

Very sorry for the terrible quality. Two were found at around 8pm at a tennis court in Newport, NC. I have no idea what it is, never seen anything like it.
