Have you ever seen an insect that looks like it has a crazy hairdo? Well I haven't but I know what it is, it is a troll haired insect. Screenshot 2014-08-12 at 11.42.30.png

The Troll haired insect is 5 mm long 
and its body is a gorgeous golden colour. It’s hair is made of wax though it looks like normal hair. It has six legs, 3 body parts and of course long waxey hair coming out of its body.
 
Scientists believe that they use their hairy wax to distract predators from eating them.

What a fascinating insect!

  2. Hi Lizzy,
    I love your writing about the Troll! Do you know this much about another insect? I would be amazed if you knew this much information about bug's! I would love to learn more about this interesting insect, maybe next time you could write about an ant or even a spider. It look's like you have used everything you needed too from the success criteria, If I were your teacher I would score a 3P or a 3A that is how much you have impressed me! Can't wait to see more of your post! Come visit my blog here: http://hpscarleecehp.blogspot.co.nz/

    Thanks
