The "Giant Burrowing Roach" is Australia's largest roach.
And if you're not too squeamish - this could be your perfect pet!
Giant Burrowing Cockroaches are native to Australia, and are mostly found in tropical Queensland.
They are the largest cockroach in the world. They are officially called Macropanesthia Rhinoceros and are also called Rhinoceros Cockroaches or Litter Bugs. They can grow as big as the palm of your hand, measuing up to 80 millimetres. They can weigh up to 35 grams, making them the heaviest cockroaches in the world.
They can live for up to 10 years. They do not have wings. The females do not lay eggs. They bear live young with up to 30 in a clutch.
Giant Cockroaches can be kept in a medium sized tank with a few inches of sandy soil and can be fed dry eucalyptus leaves.
