Buglife

Buglife

Buglife is the only organisation in Europe devoted to the conservation of all invertebrates. We're actively working to save Britain’s rarest little animals, everything from bees to beetles, worms to woodlice and jumping spiders to jellyfish.

Invertebrates are vitally important to a healthy planet - humans and other life forms could not survive without them. The food we eat, the fish we catch, the birds we see, the flowers we smell and the hum of life we hear, simply would not exist without bugs. Invertebrates underpin life on earth and without them the world’s ecosystems would collapse.

‘If we and the rest of the back-boned animals were to disappear overnight, the rest of the world would get on pretty well. But if the invertebrates were to disappear, the world's ecosystems would collapse.’ Sir David Attenborough

    I enjoyed this I've never seen someone become emotional about a spider. Are they harmful to humans?

    I didn't know they exist , they are beautiful. AIso I wonder how many micro animals would be killed from people walking on a grassy patch of ground daily over the summer.✌️

    It's funny how this is a life that should be cherished but a baby at 6 7 or 8 months in the womb now can be chopped up in a little pieces and called healthcare

    These gorgeous spiders are responsible for ridding me of my spider fear! But I had no idea they were found in England, amazing. I've only been aware of the Gandanameno from Africa and the ones in Greece. The more the better far as I'm concerned! What an amazing person this man is to be breeding them in captivity and then setting them back into the wild. How can you not fall in love with those faces? I'm feeling emotional now. Thank you so much! 💖💖

    Just been on a walk & seen at least 10 of them. Not sure which kind in particular but there were lots, they all seemed to be digging small holes in the grass. Never seen or heard of these in my life until today!

    Brilliant message, I have a passion for insects, particularly beetles, it's amazing how much you can spot when you take the time to look properly, , nature is so giving, it's time to give something back. I'm rewilding our garden, the results have been very rewarding.🌲🌲

  • @jhjhjh242
    @jhjhjh2422 ай бұрын

    A great message. I'm rewilding more of our country garden, the number of insects last year was quite staggering, particularly on the wild ox eye daisies. We've had oil beetles and lesser stag beetles to name a few.

    A really interesting video, many thanks for uploading this. I have re-ignited my entomology interest having recently bought a new microscope. I wondered which particular make/model of tarantula tweezers you used. Thanks for the enthusiasm in the film, I can't wait to view more of the buglife videos. Rich

    Jeez. I just searched “how to identify spiders” and I had to scroll thru nearly 100 videos, basically all were very short and focused on extermination or are like goofy news clips about widows or recluse. Almost NOTHING educational at all. That’s just pitiful
