COLOUR OF THE WEEK CONTEST| "Exploring the Diverse World of Scarab Beetles"

The dung beetle scarab is a bug in the order Coleoptera. It is in the Shure subfamily of the Lamellar family. In a way, they act like Ordlis because they improve the structure of the earth. Because of the way they live, people call them "drillers." This animal, the dung beetle, works very hard. These "orderly" animals dig up piles of poop, roll them into balls, and then roll them into old homes. It can roll something two to three times its own weight. Its body is either round or oval.

This varies by species and can be anywhere from 3 to 70 mm long. The shell can be lemon yellow, black, or brown, but it always shines when it's paired with the metal sheet.
