They have existed for over 225 million years, and long after we are gone, they will continue to create new forms that will occupy every conceivable ecological niche. Their ability to adapt is one of evolution’s success stories. Their diversity is phenomenal; their biomass, colossal. By themselves, they represent 80% of all living species; their weight exceeds that of all mammals put together. They are the inventors of paper, sonar, air conditioning, chemical warfare, pharmacology, and specialized workers.

The dung beetle invents the wheel; ants develop agriculture and breeding.

The ecological importance of insects.

Similarities and effectiveness of insect socialization compared to human.

Human perception of insects is studied in a new science, cultural etomology.

With their bright colours, their fantastic textures and their wonderful ornamental details, insects certainly represent the most remarkable artistic phenomenon on Earth. Insects are not only interesting for their scientific or economic value. More and more people are now aware of another value: their beauty. Entomologist Georges Brossard takes us right into the tropical forest to visit the Sequoias tribe, where craftsmen make sumptuous necklaces with shining leaf chafer shells. He then takes us on a tour of his friend George Foster’s workshop, whose sculptures of giant insects amaze the world.Along with beetles and sculpture, there are also butterflies and pictorial art. Their wings are works of art which could be framed. They are a combination of fauvism, expressionism and abstract art. We do not know why and for whom insects make themselves beautiful? Let’s not try to understand. Let ourselves simply be seduced by all these astonishing demonstrations of living art.

Butterflies show aggressive behavior inconsistent with their morphology.

The sexual behavior of insects.

The sacred texts of great religions refer to insects.

An insect contains many nutrients and no fat.

Many insect species readily adapt to change.

Dragonflies; army ants; ants vs. termites.

Children ask questions; insects inspire many toys.

Expedition down Venezuela’s Orinoco River; insect phobias.
