It seems a tad immoral to me.
It's too tempting to speed up their demise to meet the magazine orders.
I'm sure it's not in the best taste, and of course, there's money involved.

Thank you... its not just me then! I have emailed buglife... and await their response. Interestingly the magazine is endorsed by the Natural History Museum!! Whilst I agree that educating and endearing insect life to kids is important, the inclusion of a real specimen seems unnecessary .... anatomically correct models would be just as good.
