I just read this article on NPR.com. The article is about the stick insects found on Lord Howe's Island. The insects were thought to be extinct. But a small colony was found elsewhere. (I don't want to give away too much! Please click the link below to read the full article.) This is just an amazing story. I love nature and biodiversity. This is one of the best articles I have read in a long, long time. And the pictures are amazing!!
Amazing, right?
I will use this article to show my students what can happen when invasive species (the rats) take over.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments, Kim. It is such a great story, isn't it?
