[Nhcoll-l] Display of "roadkill"

[Susan Gallagher]

Another "story" to consider would be the decomposition process itself, and
the fact that while certain species, (e.g. maggots, vultures, carrion
beetles) might be considered distasteful, they are no less important than
more charismatic fauna.

as it is to the caterpillar.

Carolyn,

As Robert C. Glotzhober noted, there are so many more stories to tell behind
the "can you identify this?" theme.
