Thats what this site is trying to do. Just a fun place to visit, and a great teacher resource. Enjoy. http://www.eol.org/ |

I've been a fan of E.O. Wilson since I read his book Consilience. Thanks for a great link, D.G.! |

I think there are a LOT of insects on earth so that could be the first stumbling block.
Bookmarked that site. I could browse for hours, the world is a fascinating place. |

I need a more realistic looking one of these for my upper pasture. I have a wicked vicious neighbor with hate in her heart and time in her hands that about every 6 weeks reports my horses haven't any feed or water. she once even reported that the house had been abandoned for 2 weeks and all of the critters neglected!!! I would LOVE to see the reports of never milking the cow being generated!
