Insects
There are a lot of insects. Insects (or bugs) can be pests.
Pests attack crops. They attack animals and us, as well. Pests can bite.
The cricket is an insect. It is big and black. It can jump as fast as a frog. In fact, it must. Frogs often hunt crickets.
The ant is not as big as the cricket. Ants are strong. They dig tunnels in the sand.
