i found this H.U.G.E. beetle in the parking lot at the grocery store. he's big!
i looked on the internet, but if you don't know what to look for it's like trying to find a specific needle in a pile of needles...
ETA: i found it! it's a female Eastern Hercules Beetle. it is the largest beetle in North America.
have you ever seen such a big bug???
i wonder what it eats.....
i got through the door without a pat down :)

ReplyDelete& i have to ask...because my dad told me the only stupid questions are the ones you don't ask.....

**giggle..giggle..snort...snort**

ReplyDeletei brought her home cause i couldn't leave her laying in that hot parking lot to be run over by a car...*shrug* sometimes the least of us needs a compassionate hand to help us out.
if she was something cute and normal like puppy would would you still wonder why i brought it home???
In answer to "what does she eat"... at that size, anything she wants to... ba-dum-bum
ReplyDeletedid anyone else notice that 'it' is now a 'she'............yes, our shannon has researched and learned that the male of this lovely species have huge horns...thus the female status of her new little pet.
ReplyDeletei wonder how the melty squirrel, lucky & barney are handling the competition...
picking up a bug in the parking lot so it wouldn't get run over may qualify her as the nicest person alive.
Its a Eastern Hercules Beetle
