Produced and directed by Mark Swanson (editor of this Web site), this educational DVD explores the habitat, behavior, and life cycle of pit-digging antlions through documentary footage, time-lapse sequences, and close-up photography. 1 hr, 26 mins (includes a 15-minute core program ideal for classroom screening).

This book explores the life cycle of the pit-digging variety of antlion—the famous "doodlebug." Close-up photography provides views of physical details not apparent to the casual observer, including the large, spiny jaws of the predatory larva, the spherical cocoon, and the delicate, lacy-winged adult.

Various antlion photographs available as museum quality prints suitable for framing. Includes antlion larvae, pits, cocoon and adults, as well as action scenes of an antlion larva trying to capture an ant.
