Sow bugs are my favorite “insects,” mainly because they are not insects. They are actually crustaceans, like lobster and shrimp. Here’s what they look like, just in case you don’t know what a sow bug is.
Sow bug is the name I learned, but Mr. Amato, my science teacher, says there lots of other names for the same non-insect: roly-poly, pill bug, woodlouse, etc. If you have other names or know something really interesting about them, please comment below.
I did a report on sow bugs. Here it is.
Psst! If you are under 13, please help me not get in trouble with the internet police and make sure your parent signs up for you. Thanks!
Another name I use is Wood Bug, a Clitter, and a wood Eater.
I thought of a new name for sow bugs: roll bugs
I like that name. It’s kind of like roly-poly, but shorter.
to Cheesie,
Its funny that you stayed in kailua cause i live in kailua
Kailua is beautiful!
In hawaii, we dont have sow bugs, but we call them rolly pollys or pill bugs
That’s weird. I wonder why there are no sow bugs in Hawaii. I went to Hawaii once. We stayed on Oahu in a town called Kailua, and we went to the beach every day!
Thats cool I hav never went to the beach pefor.
I call a sow bug a roly-poly but I heard they are called “dung-rollers” because of their diet.
I don’t think that’s right. Sow bugs are not related to dung beetles.
But DUNG ROLLER is a cool name.
rollie pollies here
Rolly Pollies!!!
We here in V.A. we call them rollie-poiies!
I mean Rollie- Pollies! Ups!
rollers!
I know I’m not related to your science teacher or anything but MY last name is Amato too…so when i saw it I was like WHAT!!! And maybe your science teacher can relate to this (Maybe you could ask him for me) Lots of people spell Amato wrong even the computer i wonder if he has the same problem?
I asked, and Mr. Amato said no one EVER misspells his name because he is so well-known in our town! He is a big kidder.
That’s awesome he sounds like a REALLY stupendous teacher!!!:D
my bff calls them rolly polly ollys u know from the show she thinks there awsame i do to her name is abby.p
