Fun Fact: Famous entomologist Stephen Jay Gould used to teach at Harvard. And he used as a bonus question "What movie actually understood why an insect can't grow more than a palm size?" And the answer was Guillermo del Toro's "Mimic". In that movie a mutant breed of insects develop lungs among other biologic traits to became the new dominant species in the planet.

@@cablecar10 I think it depends on your taste. It clearly is the weakest of all Guillermo movies. And it still manages to have a compelling visual syntax. Sadly it remains butchered by the Weinstein's involvement. Having that it mind, if you're still into cinematography and creature design, you might mike it. But if you want a movie with a more cohesive language you might prefer anything else in his filmography.

This guy is so charming and cute to boot. People passionate about insects make me more open to them as they are just other fellow living creatures and I so appreciate that. The thing that really stuck out for me though is his acknowledgment that scientific institutions have caused harm to certain marginalized groups and that's led to distrust and fear. I really feel like it's important for professionals in medical and scientific fields to acknowledge this so that it's easier for folks to trust their expertise.

@@Myskully14 That's fair. When I wrote the comment I was thinking of for e.g. fig wasps, which have been getting incorporated into figs for millennia. The bigger reason we're not super stressed about bugs ending up in our veggies is that there's kind of nothing we can do about it -- but even so, eating plants requires raising fewer plants than it does to raise plants to feed to animals and then eat the animals. Even considering bug suffering and other crop pest death as undesirable, eating plants directly is the more compassionate way. You're correct that we don't generally think of something being normal as making it morally justifiable! At least not in my experience; I can't speak for every vegan.

I always love it when people don't only explain something but link it to something else to make it stick better. For example, pairing how insects breathe with the fact that insects don't get bigger than a certain size. Information is retained so much better when it's linked to other things, when it's connected to other information. He's great at this! If I remember correctly, there was a time in Earth's history when there was much more oxygen in the atmosphere, which increased the efficiency of the spiracles so insects could be larger. At one point there were dragonflies with the wingspan of a jackdaw.

I’d love to hear what a fungus expert has to say about the massospora cicadina. Some fungus are known to “mind control” their hosts (ophiocordyceps unilateralis) so it sounds like a similar kind of survival mechanism for the massospora; infect, take over, profit.

I believe in this case the fungus actually produces within the host both psilocybin and cathinones. Which motivate the mating behavior! Cicadas all sped up on shrooms 🤣

If you want to eat an "insect" let's widen the scope of things a little and go for shrimp, crab or lobster, like insects, all of the above are in the phylum Arthropoda. Don't forget the melted butter!

About the cicadas, I’m surprised about that. What a bad adaptation for an insect whose entire point is to fly around for a month to search for a mate!
@liztrim2881
@liztrim2881 2 жыл бұрын
They’re actually adapted more for hanging out in trees and sort of, strategizing a mate lol. They only need, typically speaking, short flight paths. Usually many cicadas emerge in a pretty small area.

dinosaurs actually came about later in the carboniferous period, which is the time your reffering to when the oxygen in the atmosphere was very high. all the arthropods at that time grew really big, with the biggest being an sea dwelling arthropod called an eurypterid, which was quite bigger than the average human
