For better or for worse, female tree crickets tend to prioritize two traits in their mates: loudness and size. The louder the boy cricket, the more likely a lady is to be wooed by his serenade.

Her legs have given way and, inexorably, other body parts are failing. Eventually, she will lose the ability to stand, and then to swallow. She will be maintained by sets of tubes for feeding and waste. As her lungs give up, it is possible that her own body will choke her to death. Her brain, though, will remain sharp so she will be cognizant of this betrayal.
