This Week on The Sapling, join host Dr. Jelagat Cheruiyot, Senior Professor of Practice at Tulane University, as she gets down and dirty with dung beetles. Dr. Cheruiyot will discuss her interactions with the dung beetles and lessons beyond entomology. Beetles, a member of the insect order Coleoptera a will teach you the lessons you want to learn and those that you do not. Beetles come in all sorts of colors, shapes and sizes, are among the best decomposers, and the reason why herbivores are not buried in their own dung!
