Futureproof with Jonathan McCrea
The insect world is a weird and sometimes terrifying place. Not only do insects need to battle with the environment, cross-species competition, or other creatures both big and small simply trying to eat them - they, like us, also need to contend with parasites and the potentially fatal outcomes if one gets a hold.
