Question

Where are a cicada's ears?

Answer 1

Cicadas ears are right next to the tymbals. In order to prevent severe over loading of the sensitive hearing structures, cicadas have a special muscle in their ears that actually folds the ear creating a crease. This makes the ear far less sensitive to the high levels of sound produced while the individual is singing. ( cit. )
