Species Name: Xylotrupes Sumatrensis, Chalcosoma caucus Common Name: 3 and 1 horned rhinoceros beetles Origin: Southeast Asia Size: 8 x 10" Black Shadowbox Frame They use their long horns to battle other males over females or food sites. Armored with a powerful exoskeleton and the ability to fly despite their massive size, make them tenacious survivors. They are active mostly at night to avoid some of the few predators capable to prey on them. There are so many interesting things about the rhinoceros beetles, some rhino beetles, are capable to lift their own weight by 850 times. Because of that strength, when 2 males wrestle with each other, one will occasionally catapult the other into oblivion.
