The witchetty report

Witchetty grubs Witchetty grubs are amazing insects. They are the larva of a cossid moth. They only live for a week. They are invertebrates not vertebrates. This means they don’t have a backbone. They are living things. 
 Habitat 

Witchetty Grubs live in a burrow of a tree or in the roots. They are found in the outback { which is Australia } and throughout the world. 

 Features 
The grub has a strong jaw to chomp throught wood but it does not eat it. They live 60 cm underground. They live by themselves until they mate. People eat them for a snack in restaurants and cafes but don’t eat the head because it can wiggle and try to bite you. 

 Food and sleep 
Witchetty Grubs sleep during the daytime, not at night time. This means that they are nocturnal. They eat the sap from trees. 

 Predators T
he grubs predator is usually a rodent like a weasel or a rat. Also an itchy grub, another type of grub, can be their predators too. As you can see they are amazing creatures.
