Interesting fact : The borneo walking stick is the second longest stick insect in the world in terms of body length.
With a body length of 12.9 inches, the Borneo walking stick insect resembles twigs or thin branches tied together. Unfortunately, not a lot of information is available on this insect. But it is believed that its habitat is comprised of the rainforest areas where it is easy for the insect to conceal itself. Also, the eggs of this insect are unique. The eggs have small wing-like extensions on either side, making easier for it to float to the ground when the female drops the eggs.
