So that's where James Cameron got the idea.

Thanks Edward, I might upload some more Washington ones since you're identifying them so quickly :-)

This one was dead, no chance of biting. Unless there are zombie-wetas :/

I believe they recently found one that was 7 inches long. From a different weta species to this one, but it's the biggest insect ever seen apparently (not including fossils)

No more than 6cm for the main body, just a little 'un

There seem to be quite a lot of Astragalus subspecies out there and I can't tell for sure if this is var. whineyi or var. siskiyouenis, but given that it's very close to Siskiyou County I'm happy to go with that. Thats for the ID Kristal

Nice work Ale, I've updated the spotting with your species ID

I can see the similarity, but horny toads are a different animal. Convergent evolution perhaps?

Afraid not, I culled them down to just the best of each subject before ProjectNoah existed

Your ID looks good to me.
