This is "yakrunit hate'ena". a beetle from the Cerambycidae family which you can find in this site. The latin name is Batocera rofumaculata. You can give it branches of  "Te'ena" tree. It looks like a female

so if mated it can lay eggs in the branches you give it (not too thin branches).

goodluck!
