Who Cares About Insects?

Why do we overlook insects so often? In this show we decided to focus on insects for a change. Our guest Alex Hill is doing his PhD research on human insect relationships. We discuss why people including animal advocates and vegans do not consider insects much at all. We have a short quiz on insects, we talk about the threat of insect extinction and look into the details about different species of insects. Music Played: Graeme Revell ‘La Danse Des Ténèbres (Dance Of Shadows)’ https://youtu.be/6DVbfPq4B9Y?feature=shared&t=742 Adrianne Lenker ‘ingydar’ https://adriannelenker.bandcamp.com/album/songs David Rothenberg ‘Katydid Prehistory’ https://www.bugmusicbook.com/music  Note: The podcast / archive version of Freedom Of Species will not contain any music, due to copyright issues with streaming platforms.
