When I lived in New Jersey......?

...I saw on a few occasions what I can only describe as a very large stick bug. What is weirder, there was a hoop like appendage on its mouth area.

I was under the impression that bugs of this sort were only native to warmer climes. Can anyone give me some info on these bugs? Thanks.

No, didn't look like a dobsonfly, and it didn't have wings.

next time, make a photo

and just ask the question instead of posting clickbait
