While in the water, dragonfly nymphs breathe through complicated gills inside the end of their bodies. Water is pumped in and out of the gills, to bring in oxygen and get rid of carbon dioxide (this also helps to propel the animal forward).

Damselfly nymphs breath through 3 feathery gills which grow out the back of their tails.

The females lay their eggs near or in water, and the nymphs swim and live in it like fish. They eat aquatic insects and use their abdomen by squeezing water out of it as a jet to shoot out and grab prey.
