Lottie Myrmex Bless your heart! HUGE #cw-bugz!! <>: @viridianOphidian (Limeblood) ˖⁺‧₊˚ 𓆦 ˚₊‧⁺˖

((This oc's main thing is that there was a mix-up at the caverns, so her lusus is the mother grub despite her not being jade, and the jade in her session had some random other lusus. so this girl was raised by a literal bug and loves collecting bugs. she knows sooo many facts! only trouble is mother grub (aka "Momma") gets hungry and sometimes eats the collection... :( ((she's a southern gal! i imagine texas i think?? idk i'm a dirty northerner lol.
Evenin', all! It'z high time for another one a #LottiezLezzonz! Az per y'all'z vote in mah lazt poll, tonight'z lezzon iz about Monarch Flutterbugz! Firzt off, remember when you were schoolfeedin' age and you and your hatchmatez would compare y'all'z exact agez like it mattered a lick? Well, now imagine if all that DID matter! Ya see, flutterbugz born in the spring / summer uzually live 2-6 wipez, whereaz onez hatched towardz the end of the summer tend to live EIGHT OR NINE PERIGEEZ!! It'z cuzz of the timin' of everythin'; the flutterbugz hatched towardz the end a the seazon tend to stick around longer. Az grubz, theze ladiez are known to literally STEAL POIZON. Betcha never heard of nothin' like that, huh? Ya see, az grubz, they like to snack on milkweed, which iz poizonouz to quite a few critterz. When they change into flutterbugz, the poizon iz still there, so any predatorz are in for a nazty surprize! Gettin' lotza inzpiration for future Lezzonz, so stay tuned! And thankz for tunin' into #LottiezLezzonz! ::.) ˖⁺‧₊˚ 𓆦 ˚₊‧⁺˖

TEMPORAL LOCUST
Hi, y'all, it'z Lottie! I been seein' a lot of theze pretty ladiez out lately, so tonight'z subject iz... Dragonfliez! Did y'all know that dragonfliez are THE mozt succezzful predatorz on Alternia? For example, sharkz? I reckon they only get the target about half the time. Lionz are a little better with a succezz rate clozer to 75%. But dragonfliez? NINETY-FIVE PERCENT SUCCEZZ RATE! Ain't that somethin'? They're so good at what they do, that the Emprezz' military scientermagantz are takin' notez from 'em! No kidding! Dragonfliez alzo have what'z called True Omnidirectional Flight. They got four wingz total, and each one can be moved on itz own. So dragonfliez can hover, fly in circlez, backwardz, upzide-down, twizt their wingz... Hell, I wouldn't be surprized of they could even do loop-de-loopz! And if you were to take three of their wingz (that iz, if you were a cruel, puzherlezz being), they could still fly and hunt good with juzt the one. Don't azk me how. It'z probably juzt cuzz of their all-around amazzingnezz! So y'all keep a ganderbulb out, and maybe say hello if you see one! Catch ya next time on #LottiezLezzonz! ˖⁺‧₊˚ 𓆦 ˚₊‧⁺˖
So uh, on THAT note, tonight'z subject will be bumblebeez! I'm sure all y'all have heard that snappy line about how "accordin' to all known lawz of aviation, the bee should not be able to fly." Well, I'm happy to report that that'z completely true! It waz throwin' scientermagantz for a real loop for a while, but it turnz out their wingz move so fazt that they lift their bodiez off the ground like a little whirlcraft! They flap 130-240 timez a SECOND. The strength and speed really iz somethin'! Did y'all know you can't juzt mix and match any old bee? There'z flowerz honeybeez can reach that bumblebeez can't, and the other way round too! Bumblebeez got thiz thing where they land on a flower, and then bazically they vibrate their ENTIRE fat little body az fazt az pozzible. Eventually, the pollen vault will explode, and they'll get all covered in the stuff to take home! Here'z a third freebie fact: Bumblebeez are adorable! ::.) ˖⁺‧₊˚ 𓆦 ˚₊‧⁺˖
