Insects provide the ideal
way to get started in Natural History. They are plentiful,
easy to catch and mount. Insect collecting provides an ideal
family activity and a great reason to explore local ecosystems.
Our Information Section provides a great
Insect Identifier, that will help guide you through basic
biological
classification. As there are over 500,000 different
insects, it only goes down to Order.
We also provide kits that you raise your own
butterflies, ladybugs and silkworms. When you turn your
butterflies loose, some may move into the butterfly Home and use the
Butterfly Feeder, but both are also great for attracting wild
butterflies.
If you really want to explore how exciting Insects are,
be sure to see our Butterfly
Specimens and Insect
Specimens. Both are filled with really big bugs from
distant lands. |
