Meeting
an entomologist convinced Kevin Clarke to quit a career in finance and
pursue a Master’s Degree in Conservation Biology that focused on insect
conservation. While in grad school, he learned about Butterfly Farming
and the positive impact it has on forest conservation, while at the same
time providing an important income to disadvantaged populations.
Bug
Under Glass pupated in 2002 to combine a love of insects, art, science
education and conservation. Every display Kevin makes has a little story
attached to it that brings to life the insect inside. His displays also
make a valuable contribution to forest conservation by helping
butterfly farmers support a lifestyle that preserves rainforest, instead
of cutting them down.
