Bug - Cloud Nine

Season 1 · Episode 11 · Jan 15, 2006

Meet Ruud Kleinpaste, the bug man. He's traveled into the cloud forest of Venezuela to find out about teamwork. When everyone helps everyone else amazing things are possible. Why do moths live on sloths? And why do scorpions ride on the backs of beetles? Come and see this enchanted forest for yourself. There are more bug species in one square mile here than in all the United States. They're big. They are spectacular. And they're everywhere. Here, bugs cooperate. Everyone needs each other. Break the chain and it all falls apart. So, how does that work? It starts with location. Venezuela is mostly covered in rain forest, but up high in the mountains it becomes cloud forest, and plants and animals get their water from clouds and mists. In a very special part of the Venezuela cloud forest, there's a narrow opening in the Coastal Mountains called Portachuelo Pass. It's bug paradise, and it's the only crossing point in Venezuela's Coastal Mountains. All animal traffic, and that includes bugs, must go through the pass. So what better place to go looking for bugs that cooperate and to show you how everything around here depends on each other?
