[Oscerot]

I remember I was on this hike and a random beetle flew on my pants. I started running around and smacking myself.

Who wouldn't like a dung beetle? Is that you in the picture?

[sachin]

I was.........afraid of that.

before I took admision into Masters degree in Entomology(Insect study)

[February Beetle]

I would love to have a degree in Entomology, what do you do with it? (This might be worded funny)

[sachin]

Lot more than with mammals

[Bugz]

Yeah, that's me in the pic(I mean the hand...).

Thank u for replying my topic guys.This is my ist topic here.

Relax,jimmystang.Dung beetles wont bite you,they are benign.

And Mr.Sachin@biog, I'm wondering that are you major in Entomology?

[Bugz]

And I even got a tiny one~~ 3mm~~

[February Beetle]

So cute, where did you get them? Do you breed them? Tell us about them! (please )

[Bugz]

Ok,no problemo.

I got these dung beetles under cattle dropping(or horse),80% speices in my town are "tunnelers", others are "rollers"(Pic1 is a roller, pic2 is a tunnelers).In fact, most dung beetles like "human dropping" best, but it's really hard to find one.

I never breed them, what can I feed them?I can't bring their "food" home ...Maybe I can try it this summer.

Anyway, I like them.They're cute, funny, and kindly. And in my opinion, dung beetles symbolize the cycle & renascence ~~
