Forests Under Threat: The Pine Processionary Caterpillar Invasion | SLICE EARTH | FULL DOCUMENTARY

For thousands of years, the pine processionary caterpillar, an indigenous insect of Europe, has steadily advanced northward, feeding on pine needles and leaving destruction in its wake. As this invasive species spreads, it not only threatens Europe's pine forests but also risks destabilizing entire ecosystems. In the Landes region of France, the damage caused by these caterpillars is so severe that their destructive trail can be seen from afar. But the risk doesn't stop there. The pine processionary caterpillar's relentless march could soon impact other regions and species, further endangering biodiversity. Several research teams are now investigating the behavior and lifecycle of this destructive insect, in a race to curb its spread before it invades more ecosystems. Can science stop the procession before it's too late?
