If you were asked to pick three wild animals, chances are you would select a large, easily identifiable animal with a backbone called a “vertebrate”. What you may not realize is vertebrates only make up 10% of all living and fossilized animals in the world! Animals lacking a backbone, invertebrates, rule the animal kingdom. This includes insects so let’s spend an evening learning more about these numerous critters!
