Antfarm - an Anthropomorphosis

10/07/2023

We at Antfarm are sad to mark the passing of Associate Professor Peter Chapman on 31 May 2023, dearly loved and missed by friends, colleagues and family including our accordionist Sofia. Peter was the first to draw our attention to the work of ant enthusiast Baron Avebury, in giving Alana the extraordinary monograph 'Ants, Bees and Wasps'. Cassy O'Connor had this to say: https://tasmps.greens.org.au/parliament/peter-chapman-tribute?fbclid=IwAR2OORU5jk6C5yxdTeEMC9cIXjE6WfLe0NYq9THFm8p3qOad6XQ-WGkmBoY
