Good evening my friends. Okay in this post I will share some pictures of a rhinoceros beetle that I managed to find in my house. So yesterday when I was eating at home suddenly I stepped on something very hard at first I thought it was a small stone but when I saw it turned out it was an insect or rhinoceros beetle, this beetle has a unique color that is jet black and has a very hard skin that looks like steel, that's why when I stepped on it felt like stepping on a small stone, I don't know whether this beetle is dangerous or not but I still don't dare to hold it, so at that time I immediately moved this beetle to the front door of my house using a wooden branch, but before I threw this beetle away I took a picture of it first, because in my opinion this beetle has very unique characteristics so it looks very interesting. Okay friends here are some pictures of this beetle.
