Rhinoceros beetle on porch




Today we had a rhinoceros beetle on the porch, ad the cats were very interested! Previously we have only seen them in far North Queensland. Apparently they are abundant down here this year. They make a cool hissing sound if you get near them. Our friend Annette has a Rottweiler that was quite taken aback after being hissed at by the beetle....
