Moth Story: Breeding a BEAUTY! Rothschildia erycina - Tropical American Silkmoth with Bart Coppens

Описание: PLEASE HELP!!!! YouTube does NOT support my channel!! I am permanently demonetised; when people click on my videos, I don't make a single dollar. This channel runs on donations from my viewers for 100% !
The type of content I make is very expensive and time consuming - such as filming the whole life cycles of butterflies and moths in captivity, which takes months of dedication! I am also an independent researcher, conservationalist, moth breeder and hobbyist, and the funds I raise online go towards my videos, my research & breeding projects that promote the importance and our knowledge of insects and other animals - on social media and in reallife! It helps me make videos, and it helps me help the insects I care about!

My mission as a YouTuber is as follows:
1. Inspire people to admire insects (butterflies & moths in particular) more, and realise how important, beautiful, complex and fun these animals are. Insects are the most important animals in our environment, but get the least attention!
2. Promoting (ethically!) breeding moths and butterflies in captivity, and providing notes, tips and caresheets, to help other people breed them.
3. Subtly point out environmental issues, to get my audience more aware of the fact our environment needs more support, and make people care more about nature in general.
4. To supplement my career as independent entomologist, and provide a free and accessible source of information online.
5. To entertain - social media is entertainment after all, no matter how much we pretend it's science - to be succesful, one has to be entertaining, and provide interesting content to take peoples mind off other issues.
6. Use my influence in a positive way, that generates more attention towards species of animals that have been severely neglected by science.
7. To raise more funds that I could use to produce more, and better quality content in the future.

Thank you for watching!
