SNAn insect so large, its wings sound like a helicopter. The elephant beetle or Megasoma elephas, is an iconic rhinoceros beetle species originating across Central and South America. In recent years, they have become popular breeds throughout the beetle rearing industry internationally as well.
Despite their heavy build, these incredible beetles are still able to take flight. Like a living transformer, they unlock their elytra and stretch out their wings. Flying can only be sustained for short periods of time, but is still an extraordinary ability nevertheless.
