Insect exhibition for sale

In fact, it is not difficult to travel with the exhibition. Through trial and error, you find a couple of dozen killer cities. You exhibit and promote. You pay a labor penny to people who will lead excursions, sell tickets, clean the hall. As a rule, these are museum employees and this is a percentage of ticket sales. The exhibition in each of them will be held every two years. Two months is the optimal time. You shoot, move to a new place. And all over again. So you can drive without end. Next week I will pick her up from Kineshma (Ivanovo region).
Here comes the entomologist. But it is not the enemy of insects.

Scan from "Chemistry and Life"?

Rather from "Butterflies of the World" by L. Kaabak and A. Sochivko (Avanta, 2001). In general, this is K. Spitzwey (Butterfly catcher. Mid-19th century)

Actually, it was misrepresented in Avant. He's a Spitzweg.

A solid publishing center and then misrepresented.

Charaxes (genus Charaxes) are found mainly on the African continent — there are 130 species of them, while in Asia there are about twenty, and in Europe-only one (Charaxes jasius). These butterflies are highly valued by collectors for their elegant "aristocratic" color. Looking at such dandies, you can't help but think about how delicious nectar they should eat... It didn't happen at all! In fact, charaxes —.real vultures: they love to feast on the rotting remains of monkeys in the forest! Rare among butterflies carnivorous creatures, they are able to catch even the faintest smell of carrion and dozens fly to him from all over the area. In the absence of meat, they become coprophages, that is, they feed on urine and excrement... Female charaxes have a weakness for rotting fruits, from which they greedily suck the juice until their bellies swell. Since fermentation enzymes enter the intestines at the same time, some of these females get quite drunk and, rising into the air, write out uncertain zigzags for a while...
Butterflies of the genus Charaxes are among the most difficult to catch, as they prefer almost impassable forests for humans. Still, some species are more accessible than others — they have mastered the open savanna, where they are relatively easy to find. The species Charaxes candiope is most common. These butterflies have colonized the whole of Kenya right down to vegetable gardens and cultivated fields and make migrations across the country with a length of more than 500 kilometers.

the text, to be honest, is not the best for public exhibitions - a piece about rotting monkeys, urine and excreta can cause unpleasant feelings for viewers..

Why not? The modern genre is dictated by aggressiveness, action, senseishon and a lot of negativity. And all this is being shoved in bundles - and society is in convulsions demanding more. In order for modern films about science to be in demand, and documentaries about mold to be equally interesting for everyone, you need to say in Bezrukov's nastrashivatingly mysterious voice (by the way, he turned out to be healthy): "We open a jar of jam, find mold there, remove it with a spoon and do not even suspect how dangerous it can be"
For the modern genre is what you need. Just imagine. Dying monkey - and butterfly monsters that finish it off. Ominous music. And the bloody proboscis of butterflies devouring their prey. Here it is action packed. Here it is entomology to the masses is what you need.

Don't look for a ghost in the closet. It's not there.
I had some charaxes and a book about butterflies. A black one, French. "Butterflies of the world" is called. Alain Ed and Michel Viard are the authors.
Full text from there. I didn't invent anything myself. For me, the visitors of the exhibition will figure out everything for themselves.

In 1912, my cinematographic career began.
I have written and directed thirty-six entomological and oceanographic documentaries produced by Pathe and Eclair.
At first, I was very happy with such an interesting job, but soon I noticed that the representatives of these companies did not share my views. These gentlemen usually asked the following question: "The animals you intend to shoot eat each other, don't they? No? Well, are they even fighting among themselves?"
I had to comply with the producers ' demands, and I forced poor insects who didn't have the slightest inclination to fight.
From a commercial point of view, the producers were right. The film about the battle between a lobster and an octopus was a huge success. It was a shame, because the film required no more than two or three hours of work, and the most difficult part was to arrange a set of seaweed and shells in the aquarium of the Arcachon marine laboratory.
My second oceanographic film was not so successful, although I think it was much more interesting than the first one and took a lot of work from me. It was a documentary about an electric stingray.
Then I was unexpectedly lucky.
I was asked to make a film about a dung beetle-a sacred scarab. I have honestly warned Pathe that these insects are by no means warlike.
- Well, what can you do, shoot them as they are.
However, the scarabs, who were too cramped in the glass box, began to fight over a pellet of horse manure, and they fought very fiercely.
