2012 Young Collectors Animal Athletes - Rhinoceros Beetle
Description
The fearsome appearance of the Rhino Beetle, along with the loud hissing sound they produce when stressed, all add to the insect’s reputation as one fierce fighter, and relative to its size, is one of the world’s weightlifting wonders.
With its legendary strength, it is claimed that the Rhinoceros Beetle can lift between 100 to 850 times its own weight. Compare this to humans who can generally only lift up to twice their own weight!
