I'm just a bit excited and woke up early this morning because it's time to pick up the LHISI eggs from the Melbourne Zoo. That's Lord Howe Island Stick Insect, for those who are coming along on the journey of involvement of rearing these CRITICALLY ENDANGERED species.
THe Zoo has a great website about them. Here it is. http://www.zoo.org.au/lord-howe-island-stick-insect
Click on it and find out more...There's a great video of a LHISI hatching. Amazing.
I was hoping to catch the train up from Geelong, but there is track work and bus replacements half way through the journey. This could prove challenging on the return leg when I am trying to carry a 90cm x 45cm x 45cm box, 20 or so CRITICALLY ENDANGERED LHISI eggs and 2 plants!!
