RE: A pitcher plant ecosystem, or "I eat flies with a little help from my friends."
Solid work. I should have known bacteria helped break down things, but protozoa, larvae, and even crabs are unexpected. I also learned one of the first concrete reasons why mosquitoes are ecologically important.
Oh, and protozoa being the stars of middle school microscopy, but the red-headed stepchild of microbiologists is probably the most perfect explanation of them I've ever heard.
Glad you liked it. I was a little worried about the red-headed stepchild observation, happy someone agrees.
