This beetle was found on the 10th of June in Minden NRW Germany. It is feeding on a plum which I bought in ALDI a few days before

  • where do you find this!? in your back yard? are you in amarica?

  • @LeaderFuzzy57

    Hi, I live in Germany (near by Hannover) and yes

    it lives here in the forests. But you VERY rarely see it.

    The only time it flys is end of June. But this one was

    brought to me by a pupil who had found him on the way to school.

    I had to give it back the next day so he would be released

    same place where he was found.

    And I had him for a day and made the clip in my backyard.

    you can hear my wife playing the flute :)

  • can you imagine this thing duking it out with a hercules beetle?

  • @ARDVARK383

    hard guess :) Lucanus would grab sideways,

    Hercules from top - hmmm, both are born fighter ...

    Hercules is a little bigger though, maybe he ll win.

  • its like its having another bug inside it

  • @TheCyberslasher1

    yes , right , I was so amazed when I saw him doing it!

    opening the front door ;)
