Tree lobsters - back from extinction

[LandSailor]

Wasnt sure whether this should have gone in the bush tucker forum
We may not have the Tassie Tiger back but the tree lobster is back from the brink.

Climbing Balls Pyramid is on my bucket list, hope I don't squish one of these guys when I get there...

Wait, either live with filthy, introduced vermin or live with saved from extinction, prehistoric native insects....What's the question here, am i missing something?

[LandSailor]

puredingo agree...no contest. But actually dont want to be insensitive to the ecological treasure that is the tree lobster but have found a site with some great recipes.

Amazing story of survival. It blows you away to realise how desperately a species will cling to life. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the can one day return to Lord Howe!

I swear I read a book based on (finding) these things. Bright Air, that was the name of it!
Good old Australian crime fiction. I would recommend it
