kiji Said :
Have you'll seen a beetles?
Sophie Said :
omg! its like a pet! its pretty cute.
SkonOfVulcan Said :
In India they eat these. Actually quite tasty and an easy meal to catch as they really can't hurt you and they aren't too fast.
When cleaning for cooking you remove the bottom half, puree the contents with some seasoning, clean the top half, flip over and put the contents back in and cook in the upper half of the shell using it as a bowl.
Kind of a nutty / lobster / crab taste. Very good with a spicy curry and fried eggplant.
Anyone want the whole recipe?
Maddie Said :
Eww, they actually eat them?! But out of curiosity, give me the full recipe (I'm not gonna eat it just curious)

Zhenya Said :
Alot of these beetles dont even get that big that guy is a champ and i seen small cousins theyre called Rhino beetles in the Eastern Bloc a shit load lived in a woodchip pile by my grandpas shed
joel Said :
cute little bugger
Shivaya Said :
I have never known anyone to eat Rhino Beetles in India. I believe that Locusts are eaten (sometimes) in parts of India but the eating of Rhino Beetles sounds more like 'Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom' than fact.
Infact, most Indians are vegetarians.

Pack your things, honey, its the beetles house now
zachary Said :
If anyone knows how to order a live specimen of this species please let me know. Thank you very much.
ginger moore Said :
How the heck big is that thing. It looks ginormous.
Randall Said :
This is called Megasoma Elephas and they are from Central America. They do fly. They are utterly harmless to humans, but you wouldn't want to try to pry one off your arm. The hooks they have for feet will take your skin off with it. Best to let it just walk off of you on it's own.
Imagine riding a motorcycle down a jungle road at 50 mph and having one of these hit you in the chest!
As for eating them, well.. have fun. I don't know anything about that. Can't say thats one of the things I thought of when I first met one of these.
The one pictured is a large male. The female is smaller and doesn't have a horn. The horn doesn't actually do anything, probably just to scare off predators.
joe Said :
that picture was taken in tortugero, costa rica. just read the girls shirt, its a remote village on the north carribean side of the country, nice place for hangover but less hookers than in the capital....
Bob Said :
umm.. you got something on your shoulder
stormbilly Said :
it's like the w3 crypt lord hero ^_^
Baruch Said :
Can you teach it tricks?
Alissa Said :
We also have these here in Australia, only they're black. They are really cool. Only the males have the 'horns'. They cant hurt you, but they do make a hissing noise which scares most people. Its quite fun to watch little kids trying to catch them... ROFL!!!
Smitty Said :
If I saw that thing in my house, I would burn my house to the ground.
Vic Said :
Ok, after reading all the responses thus far i have come to this conclusion for myself.... I want one! It would be freakin awesome to walk into work with that thing just sitting on my shoulder. Haha i can just see my supervisor freak out over it (he's TERRIFIED of anything bigger than a pinky nail). So please for all that is good and right in the world respond to this posting on how i would go about getting one of these.
Thank you ๐
AQ Said :
Can you teach it tricks? ... sit, roll over, go bite?
tim Said :
@ stormbilly : that hero's called ner'ub ^^. and damn i want one cool insect.
Matt Burgess Said :
We have similar beetles in Australia (as said by someone else) but they're much smaller. I always called them Elephant Beetles (which is what these are), but some searching shows them to be Xylotrupes ulysses, or the Common Rhinoceros Beetle.
The horn doesn't do much in these species (and it's not sharp) but the males use them when they fight for mates, pushing each other around with them.
The only real threat is its claws. If threatened or pulled it will grip on. Not to hurt you, but that's what happens. They're surprisingly strong, and needle sharp. Your only choice is to let them crawl off yourself.
Oh... and seriously, why kill them? They're just a big awesome animal.
dangermind Said :
why would you want to kill one? i would be fascinated if i see one. i bet there are bigger ones then these somewhere on this world,
c. obrij Said :
i picked up one as big on a dirt town road on the carribean coast in costa rica once. some tourist ladies from other side of the street came screaming running over to take a picture of my hand holding it.
c. obrij Said :
p.s. i picked it up by grabbing the middle sides of the thing like you can hold a crab. he coud not reach my fingers to retaliate legs moving all about.....
Dee van Storm Said :
These creatures are truly amazing...
And totally harmless. Sort of a gentle giant of the insect world.
JOe Said :
Stupid people will kill anything they fear or don't understand. Kill kill kill!!! Sad
DumbDude Said :
I just turned in a report on these they are called Elephant Beetles. They are 5 inches long and weigh 35 grams (average) and can lift 850 times their own body weight.
alter3go Said :
Its the same as eating a lobster. But this thing doesnt swim in the ocean and doesnt have mercury.
If you think about it, a shrip is like the cockroach of the ocean. and a crab is like a giant spider. but people love to eat them ๐
Kulkarni Said :
Its totally wrong.
In India beetles are not eaten.
Its common in China, Thailand, Phils & Some parts of America
Allen Said :
Just imagine... those things can fly...
Anna Said :
OMG! I don't know whether or not I would want it as a pet, but I would definitely want to hold it and play with it! I find it really sad how people want to kill it just because they don't know about it. They are supposed to be gentle so you might as well let it be...
FUNNYJACK Said :
CAN I EAT IT, HOW DOES IT TASTE!
MEH. Said :
why is it so big?!
K Said :
Imagine having a fight with that thing.
Beckie Said :
OMG DON'T EAT THEM! THEY'RE THE CUTEST THING EVER. Look at it's little facceeeee. I really want one.... it's a shame i come from England :/ They come close to being cuter than bearded dragons. I bet they'd make great pets <3
Jdeez Said :
It's a rhino? no its a Rhibeetle a Genetically Engineered species
Kabuto Said :
I know these comments are old... but
> They are eaten in China, Japan & Some places in America.
What is your nationality.
Iโm not sure about China, and "some places in America" but we Japanese people never eat Megasoma beetle. They are pets for us.
> some company export them to japan... poor
> they're treated so bad on the way to japan...
Person who adapt this kind animals or bugs never treat them bad. Because they are collector!
They treat them like a king.

Johnny Said :
That thing is awesome. Why would you want to kill it?
someone Said :
bettles have to suck blood to grow and live... hey mate one day that big bettle will bite the crap from you when you sleep. so my advice is kill it or let it bite a big animal like a cow (only if the cow is sleeping or the cow will just scream like a little girl).

monica Said :
Its soo cool, my bro had one but it was tiny and it died 3 days after we bought it... ๐
lcbs0004 Said :
What makes this amazing, is that bugs respire through gaos in the exoskeleton (shell). So they have to be small, so surface area is larger than mass. Thats why you dont see them as big as in the movies.
But this, could take on goszilla.
sue Said :
Awesome, I had no idea those grew to be that big. I'd be scared to have that on me!!!

Outstanding!! Love it. Want one.

That looks like a Central American species to me. I have a live pair at home in Belize now. My male broke his horn when he hit the street light.
The larvae eat decaying wood from dead tropical hardwoods. The aldults only live a month or so and only eat fallen fruit or sugar cane as in the picture. I think they like mushed bananas better.
Holy Hell! Look at the size of that thing!
them are giant beettles i have ever seen
Does not want!!!
