IMPORTANT BUGWORLD NEWS !!
radiation resistant moths :3
(Spodoptera frugiperda/fall armyworm and Helicoverpa armigera/cotton bollworm).
unfortunately for the radiation goblins, these little guys are pests who eat crops. so we've got some neat competition going if the radiation-goblins decide to take up agriculture. i really want to look up chernobyl and such to see what actually settled there but might be a starting point for insect evolution in the radiation-blasted regions
on other wilder bugworld news i think it would be neat if we got a hermit-crab-like creature who basically parasitises the machine army. exploits some weakness to get inside the machines and uses them as a shell
(bugworld is from this post by @skitter-queen and I dumped my nilbog goblin spec evo thoughts here!! please look at my goblins they eat radiation and have ssooooo many genes :] their lore is updated since the first post)
