	Lost Ladybug Project Adopts "Ladybug, Ladybug, Ladybu-u-ug" As Its Theme Song! Meet The Beetles! Ladybugs serve a vital and extremely cool role in the ecosystem eating aphids and other plant pests that can destroy crops and gardens. But, now the Ladybugs need our help! Over the past twenty years, several native ladybugs that were once very common have become quite rare. This is happening very quickly and it is not known how, or why, or what impact it will have on ladybug diversity or their function of keeping plant-feeding insect populations low. Check out the Lost Ladybug Project funded by a National Science Foundation grant and see how the whole family can get involved as Citizen Scientists: Lost Ladybug Project Website Check out the Lost Ladybug music video that a few ambitious 5-11 year old kids created using our song! They entered their video in Jane Goodall's Roots & Shoots Young Filmmakers Project. Their goal is to raise awareness about the decline of the native ladybug population. If they win the video contest, they will receive a mini-grant to help them become ambassadors for the Lost Ladybug Project! Good luck kids!! Click here for Lost Ladybug video
