Keynote: Sam Jaffe, Uncovering the Whole Story
Sam Jaffe, Director of The Caterpillar Lab, presented an original photograph- and video-packed talk that explored backyard pollinators, plants, parasitoids, and the many caterpillars that are positioned at the center of it all. The Whole Story is a celebration of caterpillars in all their incarnations and across all their ecological connections — a fresh perspective on natural history study that just might make you reconsider an herbivore’s place in our world.
