No, a locust and a cicada are not the same thing. Locusts are a type of short-horned grasshopper known for their swarming behavior and ability to change color and behavior in response to population density. Cicadas, on the other hand, are known for their distinctive sound and long life cycles, often spending years underground before emerging to mate. While both belong to the order Hemiptera, they are from different families and have different ecological roles.

Locusts, specifically the periodical cicadas, follow a 13- or 17-year life cycle, depending on the species.
