Dance of the Dung Beetles: Their role in our changing world Free Audiobook Download by Helen Lunn,Marcus Byrne

When I was a kid, I never realized the impact of a single little mite until I read this fascinating story of how we are affecting these insects.

The Dance of the Dung Beetles is an Australian story about a world where huge, lumbering insects chew through our fields, irrigate the land, and fertilize it.

The dung beetle is a fascinating creature. It's the only creature that has four distinct life stages, from an egg to a dung beetle larva to a dung beetle pupa and finally a winged adult. All of these phases share one common view, the sky, and so they are better able to scavenge for their daily victuals in this way. The dung beetles can actually be seen as having 4 main purposes in the world: defense, cleaning up waste, commercial use, and pest control.

The Dung Beetles are a remarkable part of our natural world. They are one of the most common species in the most diverse habitats, living on dung and rotting plant matter to help decompose it. They have been found in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America. These beetles are represented by more than 12,000 species worldwide. The Dance of the Dung Beetles is an audiobook which tells the story of these creatures and how they're changing their environments through their huge numbers and what that means for us
