Geocache Description:


 This Geocache is apart of a multi-geocache project, inspired by insects. I am an artist who will craft treasures for the caches. I will try my best to add new ones to replace the taken.

You are searching for the hidden Japanese rino beetle, otherwise known as a kabutomushi. This specific beetle is rustic gold in color. Once you find him, treat him with respect; log your find, trade swag if wanted, and then put him back in his resting place. Insects are always hiding in plain sight, you just need to look. Remember to respect and love nature the way you respect and love those around you, including insects. (:

 

Additional: Rhino Beetles are said to be the strongest animals on the planet. They are able to lift up to 850 times their own body weight. That's like a human lifting up four double-decker buses filled with passengers. Rhino Beetle grubs are great at helping to aerate your lawn.
