Clubs A-Z: OU Bug Club protects, examines native insects

For many Bobcats, playing outside with different insects calls to mind a dirty, yet fun childhood. Luckily for Ohio University Bug Club (opens in a new window) members, reliving these happy memories and putting childhood passions into practice is possible with several insects to discover in Athens.

During a typical Sunday meeting, the club can be found exploring insects native to Athens, with the goal to save and protect. Species may be researched, relocated and cared for, further educating members and benefiting the environment.
