Back in 2017 the Brave Wilderness crew grabbed their popcorn, sat back, and watch the show. Now, it's time to return to the return to bug theatre!
What’s a bug theatre you might ask? A bug theatre is a common name for an insect “light trap”, where a screen is illuminated at night to attract all sorts of creepy crawlies and bizarre insect species. It is a common practice used by field entomologists around the world!

How about a serious about abnormally large insects, reptiles and amphibians? Covers like a certain genus in a species that is much larger than others. So like the Hercules beetle, the hellbender salamander, monitor lizards, Queen Alexandra's Birdwing butterflies, the Hercules moth! Like seriously it would be cool to learn what lareg species there are that we've maybe never heard of like I wonder what the largest ant species is or the largest grasshopper species.
