Bees, don’t be bamboozled! 🐝⚠️ European oil #beetle larvae synthesize floral scents to trick solitary #bees into becoming unwitting Uber drivers to their nests - where the tiny hitchhikers then feast on bee eggs & food stores meant for the bee's brood , @MPI_CE@wisskomm.social study finds. Researchers believe this may be the 1st known example of an animal chemically mimicking a plant to manipulate pollinators🌸🐝 https://www.mpg.de/26863477/oil-beetle-larvae-smell-like-flowers-to-manipulate-bees?c=2249

These little furry fuckers for #InsectSaturday 🪲 Around 9 pm, it is as if someone shouts "RELEASE THE HOUNDS!" and dozens of June beetles descend from the skies and doodle through the garden like drunk assholes. They're everywhere, especially all over my head and body. I hate them with a passion now. I'm all for creepy-crawlies and love to watch them, but not in my personal space, please. The chickens, however, love them. From 9 to 10 pm, they gallop and jump through the run, chasing beetles like sky raisins. 😂 #Natur #nature #MinimalistMonday #MinimalismMonday #GerippterBrachkäfer #Junikäfer #Junischnurz #summerChafer #juneBeetle #insect #insects #Insekt #Insekten #InsektenSamstag #Käfer #beetle #AmphimallonSolstitiale

💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐘💩 In a 15-year field #experiment at #Mpala, #Kenya, researchers built fences to keep #elephants out and watched what happened. Without elephant dung to eat, dung #beetle populations collapsed, resulting in 23% fewer species and 67% fewer individuals. The #study, led by Finote Gijsman, is the first large-scale #demonstration that protecting elephants also protects everything that depends on them. 👉 https://news.mongabay.com/short-article/2026/06/removal-of-african-elephants-causes-coextinction-of-dung-beetles-study-finds/ #dungbeetles #ecology #conservation #savanna #ecosystem #insects #biodiversity #science #africa

Deep in the woods lies an abandoned VW Beetle Car Graveyard. Hundreds of Volkswagen Beetles and Bus Campervans are organised into rows and clusters, seemingly based on age and model. This fleet of rusting rainbow-coloured vehicles appears to represent every colour. Somewhere in the USA, some years ago. https://www.obsidianurbexphotography.com/leisure/vw-beetle-car-graveyard-usa/ #USA #America #Abandoned #Photography #OldCars #VW #Volkswagen #Beetle #VWBeetle #Campervan
