Brood 2 cicadas do not get eaten underground. They stay underground for many years and then come up through the ground. The can and do get eaten once they emerge. Animals and birds will eat them.
Certain species of cicadas, particularly the periodical cicadas, spend 13 years underground as nymphs before emerging as adults. This life cycle is characteristic of the 13-year cicadas, which belong to the genus Magicicada. There are four species within this group, each synchronized to emerge in specific years, resulting in massive swarms. Their unique life cycle is an adaptation to avoid predation and ensure survival.

Cicadas cannot grow their wings back if they are damaged or lost. Once a cicada emerges from its nymph stage and its wings expand, they are fully formed and cannot regenerate. If their wings are injured, it can affect their ability to fly, but they do not have the capability to repair or regrow them.
Yes, cicadas do burrow in the ground, particularly during their nymph stage. After hatching, nymphs dig into the soil, where they feed on plant roots for several years before emerging as adults. Some species, like periodical cicadas, can remain underground for 13 to 17 years before they emerge to mate and lay eggs.
No. Flowers don't grow underground.
