Life in the Undergrowth
Insects disguising themselves as flowers or leaves. A spider that lassoes its prey. A beetle that persuades a bee to care for its young. Astonishingly varied - far over a million species - and important.
Kept small by lack of backbones, invertebrates were here before us, will still be here when we have gone. The are the pollinators, cleaners and recyclers of life on earth. With their help, we have evolved. Without them, we would not last long.
