하이브: 곤충학 채팅!

This interactive group is a fun opportunity to engage with fellow insect-lovers (and all arthropods really). 

Do you like to read articles, stories or watch documentaries about insects? 
Do you like to observe, study and/ or write about insects around you?
Do you want to learn how to collect, preserve and/ or correctly identify arthropods? 
Perhaps you like to keep some as pets or even food for other animals?
Or maybe you don't like insects at all but you're open to understanding them more (from a safe distance)? 
Perhaps your interested in understanding how they fit in the environment or even sustainability? 
Or you may want to know which ones are beneficial and which are more harmful/ dangerous? 
Are you curious to know which arthropods could be used to create culinary delights? 
Maybe you're more interested in the funny or creepy side of arthropods, such as zombies or if we can smell an insect farting? 

Let's get together and discuss these questions and more in The Hive! All are welcome!

As a moderator I will post engaging topics throughout the week, respond and welcome each member personally, while moderating the comments, questions and posts daily to ensure adherence to the established rules of conduct. The Hive will provide a fun and relaxed environment where all Hive members can feel confident to share, participate and ask questions. 

Monthly Hive contests (for example: a photo contest or create your own insects out of items that start with 'P'!) will give members a chance at some friendly competition and share photos, artwork, stories and more. 

Content examples will include, photos, insect wars - who would win?, videos, journal/blog articles, would you rather, news stories, questions, quizzes, nominations and votes for "insect of the month", and interesting anecdotes or experiences.

Other activities that may be included: word searches, Bingo, Scavenger hunts and more.

See you in The Hive!
