saw this on another forum, figured bug people would think it's cool. Story about bringing back a population of giant insects that were thought to be extinct. One thing that I thought was amazing was the video of the hatching.... hard to believe it fit in that egg.

That is very interesting.

Personally, I'd love to help re-establish a wild population of them, but then again I'm weird and I can see most people NOT wanting giant bugs running around all over the place.

Very good read! I like how pro-bug it was for an article. With all the anti-reptile feelings floating around, it's good to see that not EVERYTHING has to be cute and fluffy to get some attention. I also want some of those darn stick insects
