The Mayfly have only one day to live their adult lives. What do you think about this unique life cycle?

Besides serving as foods for the predators, Mayfly plays an important role maintaining balance in ecosystem, the larvae is important in preventing the build-up of a large biomass of aquatic algae and detritus, and in nutrient cycling.

Just and FYI for the producer of this video. The mayfly has an incomplete life cycle so it is called a nymph not a larva (egg - nymph -adult).

Short live for purposes only risking their life to find a mate than lay eggs and die either way! Than starting all over again. 🤔
