Volunteers could help to encourage a once-widespread wetland insect by taking part in a project to breed them at home.
Citizen Zoo, which recruits communities to get involved in local rewilding efforts, hopes to restore the bog bush cricket to habitats across East Anglia.
In the East of England, the insect survives in a handful of locations in Norfolk, near Aylsham, Sheringham and Holt.
