About the Rakau Weta (Tree Weta):

The most common wētā are the seven species of tree wētā (genus Hemideina), found in gardens or in the bush in most regions of New Zealand.

Most adult tree wētā have bodies between 4 and 6 centimetres long. Tree wētā are predominantly herbivorous, feeding on leaves and fruit. They are seldom found alone, preferring instead to associate in groups, which often share space in tree tunnels.
