A rare pink grasshopper, spotted in New Zealand, is drawing attention due to its unique color and endangered status.
A rare pink female robust grasshopper (Sigaus robustus) was spotted in New Zealand’s Mackenzie Basin on November 18, 2025, during a routine survey.
The deep pink color, likely due to a genetic condition called erythrism, makes the insect highly visible against its usual stony habitat.
Found outside a predator exclusion fence built in 2018, the endangered species faces increased risk from birds, cats, and hedgehogs.
Researchers, including ranger Jen Schori, described the sighting as extraordinary and expressed hope the grasshopper may breed, potentially producing more pink offspring.
The discovery has drawn excitement and lighthearted attention from conservationists, who likened the insect’s sudden fame to that of a celebrity.
