      Hi Josh12395,

      Nope, no animals in my work. I do work with microbes though and, let me tell you, if you leave them to grow long enough they STINK!

      Cheers,

      Ian

      Hi Josh12395,

      sometimes. Generally I’m interested in how the environment works and there are animals in the environment so I can’t ignore them. Most of the time I’m working with soil so sometimes I have to involve earthworms in my experiments. Normally the first thing that happens when my students use earthworms is that they give them all names!
