Description

How best do we fly the flag for insects? Tom speaks with entomologist and writer Richard Jones about a life rife with insects, and about how best we advocate for them as creatures of value and wonder. We discuss Richard's books, natural history clubs, bug hunts and more, as we explore the ways that we can share and celebrate insects with the wider world. We also discuss Richard's new book, A Natural History of Insects in 100 Limericks, co-created with his son, promoting and celebrating the diversity of insects lives.
