Product Description
The victim, a Beetle, is covered at all points with a suit of armour which the sting is unable to penetrate. The joints alone will allow the poisoned lancet to pass. Those of the legs do not in any way comply with the conditions imposed: the result of stinging them would be merely a partial disorder which far from subduing the insect, would render it more dangerous by irritating it yet further.
About The Author
Fabre undertook some important research on insects and wrote many books on the subject. He was primarily self-taught and worked as a teacher at a number of French schools including Carpentras and Avignon.
