AlQaholic Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 When I was a kid, growing up in Africa, we used to play with those horny ones due to lack of model cars. So we would build roads, houses and garages, and then we would drive around those bugs and pretend they where cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertson468 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 How about taking it to the nearest woods and letting it find a new home? It's a beautiful specimen, very unusual. I put it on a mango tree in my garden, It climbed to the very top, Then launched into the air. Looked too big to fly, but it could. Gone now. Well done you!

nithisa78 Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 Once when I was still chasing the buck, stayed in some flea bag motel in S. Carolina. The critters were moving the furniture around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anonymouse Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 That's a nice looking specimen, they seem to be pretty useless beetles - every night when I am taking my dog for a walk it seems I have to flip 2 or 3 of these things over that are on their backs, legs wiggling. They are also a bugger to get rid of if they get a grip on your finger! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
