The '''Migratory Locust''' (トノサマバッタ, ''Tonosamabatta'') is an [[insect]] in the {{SER}}. It first appears in {{DnM}} and again in {{WW}}, {{CF}} and {{NL}}. It makes a unique sound, best described as a stick rattling against a metal fence, distinguishing it from other insects in the game.

The '''migratory locust'''{{Note|{{Nihongo foot|トノサマバッタ|Tonosamabatta}}}} is a [[bug]] in the {{SER}} that has appeared in every game to date. It is known for its unique sound, which is best described as a stick rattling against a metal fence.
  
==Donating to the Museum==
+
In the games that the migratory locust appears in, it is an uncommon bug that the player can encounter, and can be found on the ground, occasionally hopping. In {{NH}}, it can be caught from late [[summer]] to the end of [[fall]].
Like all insects in the ''Animal Crossing'' series, the Migratory Locust can be donated to the [[Museum]] by talking to [[Blathers]], who will give a small talk on it.

Locusts are highly mobile, and usually fly with the wind at a speed of about 15 to 20 kilometres per hour (9.3 to 12.4 mph). Swarms can travel 5 to 130 km or more in a day. Locust swarms can vary from less than one square kilometre to several hundred square kilometres with 40 to 80 million individuals per square kilometre. An adult locust can consume its own weight (several grams) in fresh food per day. For every million locusts, one ton of food is eaten.

The migratory locust[nb 1] is a bug in the Animal Crossing series that has appeared in every game to date. It is known for its unique sound, which is best described as a stick rattling against a metal fence.

In the games that the migratory locust appears in, it is an uncommon bug that the player can encounter, and can be found on the ground, occasionally hopping. In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, it can be caught from late summer to the end of fall.

Real-world information[edit]

Locusta migratoria is the most widespread locust species, and the only species in the genus Locusta. It occurs throughout Africa, Asia, Australia and New Zealand. It used to be common in Europe but has now become rare there.

Locusts are highly mobile, and usually fly with the wind at a speed of about 15 to 20 kilometres per hour (9.3 to 12.4 mph). Swarms can travel 5 to 130 km or more in a day. Locust swarms can vary from less than one square kilometre to several hundred square kilometres with 40 to 80 million individuals per square kilometre. An adult locust can consume its own weight (several grams) in fresh food per day. For every million locusts, one ton of food is eaten.
