Gigantic 3 feet long grasshopper
It might seem like a scene from Men in Black, but the insect in the photo was quite real. Or so they said in the Tomah Monitor Herald. The photo was actually taken in 1937 and published in the local newspaper on September 9 the same year. Imagine browsing through the morning paper and finding out that your next-door neighbor found some sort of ginormous grasshoppers, the size of dogs in his orchard!
According to the news published on the front page with the headline: “Giant Grasshoppers Invade Butts Orchard East of City”, the insects consumed a special fertilizer created by farmer A. L. Butts on his apple orchard. Apparently, the insects that ate the strange fertilizer became extremely large at a really fast pace. What do you think? Were they real?
