  1. Nice find! Looks like their camouflage is not very effective when not in trees :) Posted 12 years ago

''Medauroidea extradentata'', commonly known as the Vietnamese or Annam Walking Stick, is a species of the family Phasmatidae. They originate in Vietnam and are commonly found in tropical forests there. They eat a variety of foliage, though in captivity they commonly eat blackberry bramble, hawthorn, oak, red maple and rose.
