Critter of the Week - Chatham fat-legged weta

Doc's Nicola Toki introduces this week’s critter - the Chatham fat-legged weta. They have massive tibia, looking like they have never skipped a leg day at the gym. It is thought their fat legs keep them safe while they are hanging in their roost holes!
