Weta are endemic insects because they are only found in NZ.
Weta have six long legs and can grow from 7.5 cm to 13 cm long. They also have curved tusks.
The Wetas habitat is the bush, grasslands and under logs and in caves. They like damp places.
The Wetas breed by the female laying 300 to 400 eggs in dirt or in a tree. They do it at night because they are nocturnal.
Weta eat leaves and some times eat other small insects.
I think Weta are cool insects.
