these are the miserable remains of a chestnut weevil (Curculio elephas) who will never again feel the joy of a freshly drilled acorn after unspeakable atrocities were perpetrated upon her by me
this is her thirty seconds later. the atrocities that she miraculously recovered from included "being gently scooped up from a branch"

I’ve decided that all bats fall somewhere on this horrid little graph I’ve devised. Here are some prime examples of the various Creature Varieties found in nature.

I feel like it should be bigger news that in 2024 we found out a whole new category of Thing that apparently lives in humans and we have no fucking clue what it does

I set up a light trap in my yard to try and attract a lady friend for one of my two male rhino beetles but I found another male instead.. so I guess I have three male rhino beetles now! I’ve given him some beetle jelly to snack on in his temporary home and he seems to be enjoying it :]
#he’s the dumbest little guy ever. I was standing outside and heard a CLUNK and it was him landing on a metal step ladder#he was totally unscathed from the crash landing but was COMPLETLY covered in cobwebs. like there were other dead bugs stuck to him#he was also infested with like 30-40 little white mites on his underside but I found a guy on youtube demonstrating how to clean them off#just gently ran him under some tap water and brushed the mites off with a spare soft bristled toothbrush#I actually specifically use that brush for cleaning mushy banana off my other two rhino beetles bc they’re the worlds messiest eaters#anyway I’m gonna name this one Webster bc of his affinity for cobwebs. I’ll buy an enclosure for him tomorrow and make it up nicely#gardeneticisms#creature photography#creature husbandry#insects#beetles#rhinoceros beetles#xylotrupes australicus

So on my birthday the other day I was absolutely BLESSED and found this magnificent rhinoceros beetle! He was just sitting on the ground in a train station car park, so I have taken him home to pamper him with assorted fresh fruits 🍌🍒
