All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

Well, crickets are insects, and tree frogs are amphibians, but you're saying this is a world-wide thing?
They are all in the kingdom of animalia. And yes, we are in the midst of a mass extinction event.
I didn't think bugs were considered animals, but I do stand corrected. Bugs are animals.
Sad to hear... The extinction event I mean... Not the taxonomy thing.
It doesnt matter what their class is. The climate is changing rapidly. Everything is dying. The niches will be refilled in a couple hundred thousand years.
It's still quicker than evolving my own stridulatory organ. I'll have to wait it seems.
