Pygmy Mole Cricket

Pygmy mole crickets - now the buzz
About the human check this out.
The humans are excited cuz
We bugs jump from water - no doubt!
This Burrows dude, an at lunch prof
Saw and heard at a pond a bunch
Of us hopping from water off.
He grabbed us (We thought we were lunch)
But he took us back to the lab,
And made us star in a movie,
Showing our back legs can grab
A ball of water and then spring free.

We have water jumped eons so,
But humans just got the memo.
