Bug Camp Butterflies
MSU’s Shelby Grice, a Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station lab technician, shows middle schoolers a display with white admiral and viceroy butterflies during last week’s Bug and Plant Camp. The summer, week-long experience introduces young students to insect collection and preservation, while also familiarizing them with habitats. The annual camp is sponsored by MSU’s Department of Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Entomology and Plant Pathology.
