Life On Earth

Speculative Evolution Jam challenged us to imagine strange creatures living in the far future or on far-flung planets but too few of us notice the strange creatures already close at hand. In your own backyard there are jewel wasps that sparkle like emeralds, carrion beetles that offer a taxi service to carrion mites, and ichneumons with pencil-length appendages that they stab through wood into unsuspecting wood-boring insects below so they lay their eggs inside them. 'Life on Earth' invites you to explore this strangeness from the fresh perspective of a bee-like extra terrestrial.
