SUMMARY:The Extraordinary Caterpillar
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a screening of The Extraordinary Caterpillar! \nThe Extraordinary Caterpillar is an hour-long documentary that explores the fascinating world of caterpillars and their essential role in maintaining healthy ecosystems. The film discusses the diversity\, adaptations\, behaviors\, ecological importance\, and life cycles of moth and butterfly (Lepidoptera) larvae. Entomologists and conservationists highlight the critical role caterpillars play in food webs\, point out the importance of native plants and habitats\, and explain why we need to protect these often overlooked\, and sometimes even despised\, creatures. \nWe will take a brief walk and then enjoy a soup lunch following the screening. Newk’s tomato basil and chicken tortilla are on the menu! \nSpace is limited to 40 seats\, please email jennifer.cumbest@dmr.ms.gov to RSVP.
