animals' technology (2) I’ve argued earlier that if technology is perceived as one species practical activities to adapt the environment, including other species, to accommodate their own needs, it would be anthropocentric prejudice (‘human chauvinism') to conceptually assign technology at the human race alone. By taking a photo of a longhorn beetle, I’ve additi- onally realized that evolution encompasses technological processes as well. Look at the sophisticated hooks on the legs of that insect [ROLLOVER]. The last section turns about an axis perpendicular to the axis of the section to which it is attached!

NOTE: Longhorn beetle are known for their very long antennae; to see them click here.
