Pine Beetles React to their Own Sound


I got the idea for this cartoon from this editorial.

It took me a long time to figure out how to go about doing the gag. I knew there was one there, but I did not see it for about a week. Talking to co-workers and friends helps me see things from a different perspective. Finally, this came to me. Before that, I had pine beetles wearing earmuffs and turning up their radio louder to overpower the fake noise. The bottom line for me is... how it the world did scientist think of sound, then how did they think of the bugs own sound. That is so cool, yet so random to me.
Thanks for reading.
