Arthro-Pod 127: Arthro-Pod Book Club, "Locust" by Jeffrey Lockwood


Listen Later

 Welcome back to Arthro-Pod bug lovers! Today, we are trying something new. As we conclude 2022, we decided to have a "book club" type approach to our next two episodes. One book that has been on our mind when considering a book club was "Locust" by Jeffrey Lockwood, of the University of Wyoming. We hope you will pick up the book or check it out from your local library and join us on an entomological history journey that concludes with an extinction cold case being solved in the chilly glaciers of Yellowstone National Park. Then, let us know what you think by tagging us on Twitter, @arthro_podshow or one of the hosts (@bugmanjon, @jodybugsmeUNL, @mskvarla36). But, for today, tune in and hear what we think! Check out "Locust" by Jeffrey Lockwood and let us know what you think!
