Prior to arrival I was told that my visit including the contact fitting will be covered by the ($15) copay only. Schwartz, I brought my old contact boxes with me.

Those who overcame the heebie-jeebies enough to try one said they weren't bad - they even tasted a bit nutty. Lori Moshman, a sophomore entomology student volunteer, handed out dry-roasted crickets and cricket cookies to the more adventurous attendees. While most bugs were on display for viewing, some had been prepped for eating. These pets can turn out to be a big commitment for an impulse buy, however female tarantulas can live to be more than 15 years old. Lily Elana Joseph, a 6-year-old from Ithaca with a large bumblebee painted on her cheek, said her favorite part of the insect zoo was seeing the tarantulas "because they're so big and hairy." For arachnid fans like her, Mexican red rump tarantulas were available to take home for $15 each.

"A lot of people mistake this guy for a scorpion because of the pinchers on its forearms," Stephens explained, "but he's not harmful at all. Linda Stephens, a senior in animal science, held a vinegarroon ("whip scorpion") in her hands to give people a closer look. Several rooms were filled with displays of live specimens, with entomology professors and student volunteers stationed to answer questions and let visitors hold some of the bugs. Among those on display were butterflies collected by former English professor and novelist Vladimir Nabokov, who was also a distinguished lepidopterist.
