do any people on here have any interest in making some money by taking pictures of bugs for me? the pictures do not have to be taken by a professional! lol

[memutic]

@Care4URchameleon Yes, I have interest. Please send me a message about what you're after.

Are you a biologist? I see that you have several different videos of very, different and exotic insects and you always seem to know your stuff when answering questions. :)

[memutic]

@Phrost104 Yes I am a zoologist! Thanks for noticing.

[TheGarcia350]

I don't get it. what's its hunting style with bright bright colors??

[memutic]

@TheGarcia350 Excellent question! It's nocturnal, and red is one of the hardest colors to see in low light situations.

@simunator

Well, it's red, which would make a Scizor reference more appropriate.

[simunator]

why is there no "wild scyther appears" joke here?
