Eleanor is an animal behaviour researcher who specializes in understanding the weird and wonderful world of insects. In this talk she will be sharing her recent work tracking one of the biggest and most elusive beetles on the planet, the titan beetle. Tackling tropical rainstorms, nocturnal work and dense forest, the team were able to gain rare insights into the behaviour of these incredible beetles as well as some understanding of the threats which face these animals in the wild.
