They are [[animal trainer|tamable]], with special knowledge, but they cannot be trained for [[animal trainer|war]] or [[animal trainer|hunting]].

Giant grasshoppers are giant versions of the insect grasshopper. They have a size of 200,007 cm3 throughout their life cycle. They have no attacks apart from pushing and wrestling. Because of this, they are not a threat. Marksdwarves can make short work of them. Giant grasshoppers do not fly or jump, as they might in real life. Giant Grasshoppers cannot be tamed in fortress mode, as they are born adults. Tame versions may be obtained from elven caravans or raids on elven sites, but they cannot be trained for war or hunting. However, since they have a maximum age of one year like most giant insects, they do not make particularly good pets.
