Spiders, spinifex, and subterranean beetles.

You know what’s a cool experiment? Looking at 5 million years of evolution in a beetle, as it adapts to life underground. Life below the earth’s surface is rooted with evolutionary mysteries… like why does spinifex grow in the shape of a donut? Is this the work of harmful soil microbes? But we digress, as the most underground topic we cover this week is… bugs on drugs (see what we did there?). Tune in!
