Wuelfing’s Stick Insects (Acrophylla wuelfingi) are one of Australia’s largest stick insects. Females can grow up to 25cm long. They are easy to care for and harmless. The males can fly short distances and are much smaller than the females who cannot fly. Wuelfing’s Stick Insects feed mainly on eucalyptus (gum) and acacia (wattle) leaves. They require an enclosure of minimum size 35cm tall x 30cm x 40cm and room temperature of 20 to 28deg C.
