The British Stick Insect Foundation

The British Stick Insect Foundation which was set up in 1968 by Dr Brian LaVide and Mrs Jean Apse to investigate the members of the Stick Insect family, and to promote their use and benefits to mankind has announced the launch of its new web-site at: . www.brookview.karoo.net/Stick_Insects. The site, another outrageous spoof by the on-line humourist John Hopkin, takes an inciteful and uncompromising swipe at the family phasmidae (Stick Insects). Packed with informative articles on feeding, training, breeding and er ..recipes, this site is the ultimate one stop resource for anyone thinking of taking up the hobby. If you are planning to spend this Friday evening at home on-line, pay this site a visit but be sure to keep your Kleenex handy.
