Neat reading article about the Lord Howe stick insect, Dryococelus australis . From the edge of extinction. http://www.npr.org/blogs/krulwich/2012/02/24/147367644/six-legged-giant-finds-secret-hideaway-hides-for-80-years

Review! Lord Howe Stick Insect https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRx-UtW1FLk Or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0XNyDfoFp-4&ab_channel=AtlasObscura

This is a Lord Howe stick insect ( Dryococelus australis )

This is a Lord Howe stick insect ( Dryococelus australis ) The Lord Howe Stick Insect was thought to be extinct for 80 years, after the population living on Lord Howe Island in Australia was wiped out by rats in 1920.

However, on Ball’s Pyramid, a narrow rock formation 13 miles from Lord Howe Island, scientists found surviving stick insects. They don’t know how they got to Ball’s Pyramid or how they managed to survive.

However, on Ball’s Pyramid, a narrow rock formation 13 miles from Lord Howe Island, scientists found surviving stick insects. They don’t know how they got to Ball’s Pyramid or how they managed to survive. To help maintain biodiversity, the scientists went through a lot of effort to keep the insects alive and to increase the population.

Why should we maintain biodiversity?

Why should we maintain biodiversity? Topic Supporting Details Concluding Sentence

Why should we maintain biodiversity? Maintaining biodiversity is important to our very survival. Biodiversity helps maintain the valuable and life sustaining systems on our planet. Clean air, clean water, food security, and pest control are all improved with increased biodiversity. When species are removed from an ecosystem, the stability of the entire ecosystem can be threatened. It is important to remember that we are a part of the ecosystem, and our actions, and how we maintain biodiversity matters. Topic Supporting Details Concluding Sentence
