Madagascar has been taken over by
uncountable numbers of locusts. This year, the leaf munchers' invasion has not
only brought fears of food shortages - the country's capital city residents are
also at risk, as some catch the toxic insects for food, AP reports.
The sky over
the Madagascar capital Antananarivo has turned dark - an endless stream of
locusts has brought biblical scenes.
The country is suffering from a locust plague
for the third year running, as billions of insects are on their annual
migration route.
