    My cat has just performed one of her household duties. In doing so, she has reminded me of an old nick-name for citizens of Nebraska. What is this name, and why were they called that?

    Question #56670. Asked by centerice.

    Probably 'bug-eaters', as I can't imagine your cat has done any 'cornhusking'! 'Bug eater' came from the Nebraskan bats which were got the nickname because of the huge amount of insects they ate.

    favorite.
