These large insects occupy the same ecological niche in New Zealand, as rodents do elsewhere. What is it?

Weta are very large by insect standards, with body length up to 10cm (4 inches). Their physical appearance is like a katydid, long-horned grasshopper, or cricket, but the hind legs are enlarged and usually very spiny.
