ColorChallenge: TuesdayOrange - NicrophorussteemCreated with Sketch.

in #colorchallenge7 years ago

This black beetle with orange stripes is a Nicrophorus, a sanitary inspector of the insect world. These beetles buried the dead animals, of course, not from altruistic considerations, but for the reproduction of their offspring, which does not detract from their merits.

Цей чорний жук з помаранчевими смужками - це жук-могильщик, санітар світу комах. Ці жуки закопують загиблих тваринок, звісно не з альтруїстських міркувань, а для розмноження свого потомства, що не применшує їх заслуг.
