Description
Looking down on this little critter from a standing position, he looked very insignificant. Just like a dark green, brownish bug.
Even laying down in front of him, the colors did not look as brilliant to the naked eye. But his strange appearance with that horn sparked my interest.
When I saw the pictures I was amazed how colorful he came out to be.
At first he was scared and pulled his head in like a turtle and all that was visible was the horn. But after a few minutes of me laying in front of him, I guess his curiosity got the better of him and he came out of his shell to look at me.

What an awesome capture!! I have seen other scarabs, but never one with as many angles as this one! And the colors are great! He really does look prehistoric!
