Life when you're small
In nature, being small doesn’t mean you don’t matter. Some of the smallest creatures in the world carry out some of the most important jobs. Creepy crawlies help the planet run smoothly. If there were no worms or beetles to eat up rotten, dead things, and no bees and other insects to pollinate flowers, we’d be living on a very mucky, barren planet. In fact, we probably wouldn’t be living at all.
