If a squid can do it, why not a grasshopper?

It just looks really fake, like a photoshop from 1937. Looks like some one took the time to carefully draw that grasshopper into the pic

Insects breathe through the sufrace of their bodies. This limits their size. volume (the size) increases in three dimensions, surface area only increases in two. Eventually the body gets to be too large for required oxygen intake. Insects in the past were larger when oxygen levels were higher.

Just looking at that picture again makes me think how good that fucker must taste (the squid, not the grasshopper). I must be hungry.
