PINCHED by an Elephant Beetle!

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! HUGE THANKS to the Big Sur Foundation for leading this adventure. Their mission is to protect the endangered wildlife of Costa Rica by creating rainforest reserves through land acquisitions, environmental education of the local population, and engagement with national and international partners.
