Before we go onto the next step of this mating phase, I think it is important to tell you how these beetles move an animal that is 200 times their weight (just to put this into perspective, if you weight 150 pounds this would be equivalent to you lifting an object that is 30,000 pounds – that would be like lifting the Westminister Bell (the one found in Big Ben)). Incredibly, these beetles will lie on their back and use their legs like a conveyor belt passing the carrion down the line. This must be quite the site.<\/p>\n
