Chirping Crickets

Melvin Berger

A cricket hear with its knees!

You have ears on your head, but a cricket doesn't. Behind the knee of each of a cricket's front legs is a tiny hole with a tissue-thin cover. This is the cricket's ear. Read and find out more amazing facts about crickets and learn how they make the chirping sounds, too. Hint: They don't chirp with their mouths!
