I think that's really rad that you want to be an entomologist. I love bugs! I have a pretty sizable collection of specimens from all over the world, some are loose and some are in shadowboxes, I hope to learn how to "re-hydrate" and mount specimens so I can do it myself with local bugs, I have a lot of local insects in baggies and stuff, we have really large tree beetles here which are really neat, they're Pine Sawyer beetles. I also have lots of ten-line june beetles as well as orange dragonflies.
