They're not seen moving, so I wonder if they even have locomotive capabilities or rely on people getting angry and throwing them far away . . .
That would be brilliant, actually: like the reason that trees produce fruit in the first place, only with annoyance instead of attraction as a method of transportation. Those fuzzy little bastards may be smarter than I thought. (Also, I beg to point out that there's not much meat on a locust either. I imagine they're the sort of comestible one eats en masse. Sort of the junk food of the ancient Near East: bet you can't eat just one . . .)
They could also be considered akin to fish, making them parve . . . Not that they have fins and scales, but the locust comment seems apt.

So locusts are parve, then? I was never sure.
