what shall you have for dinner?
Did you know a
goliath beetle’s mouth is adapted
to many different things? Let me explain, a lot of animals only have one
mouth adaptation right? Well this insect has TWO mouth adaption, amazing right?
I wouldn’t say so for myself. One adaptation is that it sips on sweet sap in
the trees. While other times it chews on fruit when they are tired from sipping
on the sap or it ran out of sap in the tree. But did you know there are more
than 30,000 species of goliath beetles, imagine all that sap and fruit lost per
day. But believe it or they actually like to eat feces, And also dead plant
material. So know you know these insects are very amazing creatures.
