'''Gromphadorhina portentosa''' is a very large and unique member of the [[cockroach]] family that only comes from the island of Madagascar. This cockroach has a considerably important job in its natural habitat. Another unique attribute the Madagascar hissing cockroach has is that it can make a hissing noise by pushing air out of the spiracles on its sides. The noise these insects make can be as loud as a lawnmower. The Madagascar hissing cockroach, unlike many cockroaches, does not have wings. This insect is also kept and raised as a pet or as a food source for other pets(like [[lizard]]s). | |||
