Insects eat plants—let me count the ways! There is a surprising and incredible variety of ways to eat plants, ranging from chewing them to sucking out their juices like mosquitoes do to us, to mining trails through the insides of leaves, to creating tumors on plants that create fresh food. In this workshop we’ll explore different ways animals eat plants and discuss the adaptations behind some of these methods of feeding. Then we’ll work on finding examples of herbivores in nature to provide you with some tools for contributing to science by looking closely at the small things feeding on plants in your backyards.
