A grub is the immature form of many insects, particularly beetles. Grubs usually live in the ground or in fallen leaves, eating rotting vegetation. The grubs you commonly see in your backyard will grow up to be either beetles or moths. Grubs all look quite similar to each other but can look dramatically different to the adult insect they will turn into.

Guineafowl are large, ground dwelling birds native to Africa. They have distinctive black feathers covered in white spots. They eat insects and seeds. Guineafowl have been domesticated for a long time, and are kept for their meat, which is similar to chicken.
