Unboxing 2 Allomyrina dichotoma (Rhino beetle) 

I found one of these in a Kmart parking lot about 12 years ago and brought her home with me. I decided to make her a little home and kept her inside. I fed her molasses and applesauce mixed together. She lived with us for almost a year. I was actually really heartbroken when she died. She was a lot of fun! She would sit on my shoulder for hours and then start making a hissing sound when she wanted down. Rest in peace, Hobjobble!

Your respect for these creatures is wonderful to see, I wish people would value such little critter's life like this all the time.

"These are completely harmless" Heracross used Megahorn! Uploader fainted!

*"I'm not gonna say what they are just yet."* *looks at title of video* *ಠ_ಠ*

I used to be obsessed with beetles and I would always watch videos like these, rewatching them gives me some sort of nostalgia, amazing beetles!

I am honestly creeped the heck out by insects, mostly beetles, but these are dang awesome

I can barely catch these in animal crossing

I came into this video thinking I'd be grossed out but I ended up being fascinated, this creatures are fucking awesome D:

very cute!!

Ohohoho, they are so cute! That female really likes you. :)

When I was a kid, I used to see a swarm of rhino beetles at night on my cousin's place, a village where it's near a forest and used to collect them as a pet. I swear it hurts so much when I try to let them crawl on my hand and always have trouble picking them up as their claws get hooked my skin but well, they're adorable :)

They are cute when they are just walking around but when one of them decides take off like a drone you know you're done

Hahaha theyre actually very cute ^-^

Check out my new video of my BIGGER Atlas Beetle! Chalcosoma atlas (Atlas Beetle) - UNBOXING!

Never see so much care with beetles before. Most the videos, no one "pet" them like "hey you precious cute thingy" or feed them...handfeeding is another level xD. They just put the substrate and god to go...apreciate your "love" for them (altought I'm not the "dog momma" weirdo type), it's very touching. These are cool guys...I just can't leave to find the larvae and the pupae really grows, and scary when they wildly fly...

So adorable, lol that female beetle being clingy.

I'm Japanese. Japanese beetle＝Kabuto mushi in Japanese. I love insects.

They're both adorable. The female was so unhappy with you, it was sweet!

What.m a stunning purchase. Looking forward to seeing more of these guys. Thanks for sharing Dan.

Amazing. Never seen an unboxing of insects before! They are stunning! Good choice!

So cute ! :)

Oh my god, it's Heracross!

Beautiful insects with a lot of attitude !

Beautiful Beetles... Thanks for sharing!

Omg I want one now but my mom would never let me get one she hates beetles but I think they are really fun! =)

The female said " I ain't going back in the box!"

Oh my goodness I love beetles! They're beautiful!

these guys are so adorable!! i love them they are super awesome. I once had to save a Rhino beetle who was in my swimming pool drowning in Italy. i transported the beetle to my next vacation home in Italy in a Box whitch is for matches. and it was still alive!

i choose you HERACROSS!! xD

Bruh I like caught 50 of those in a nearby forest in Japan. Then they escaped my box by lifting the top off the cage... but I was still left with 20 :)

I don't understand why many people disrespect beetles and the desire of others to keep them; they are just as incredible constituents of nature and an important aspect of the ecosystem as all other animals are. Just because you don't share the same fascination or level of knowledge about them does not mean they deserve to be berated or crushed. It is a shame that beauty cannot take on a permanent objective form within each and every one of us.

This was really cool to watch! They seem so cool!

I have a feeling that female wants to mate with YOU instead of the other rhino beetle. :/

I am interested in buying some of these after watching an interesting documentary. They can lift several hundred times their own weight. Will do further research before any purchase those.

Very pretty, man, congratulations. Those are some amazing specimens.

Oh wow now I want one. When u first seen the title of the video I was thinking wth, it's just a beetle but nah, these are freakin beetles!!! Awesome

how can they breath

I want one :D :D

I love them very much since I was a kid until now.

Wow, they look really nice!

That male beetle looks scary!

''unboxing'' a living creature, oh the humanity

it is really nice to see video like this one where ppl with fear of insects like me can have a chance to learn more about these intriguing creatures. hopefully one day i will have the courage to take care of one

Aww Christmas beetle are so cute.

The male Rhino is one of my favorite incests. I badly want to see a live Titian beetle in real life.

the one thing that i hate about beetles, they are very clingy

I am here today cause I saved a beetle today from little kids and brought it too my home and later knew it was a rhino beetle and also was fascinated by its strength cause it lifted the box's lid in which I kept it.

I'm....here because I found a beetle looking just like that at my school...then I addressed it to a safer place...I love them...😍😍

pokemon!!

if i would see this bug in my room, i will get instantly a heartattack ^^

OmG that is a really net looking male! The horn is pretty big for a creature of its size, and its So calm!!! It barely moved an inch! I need to get one soon

wow so beautiful. I never thought I would be interested until now. I am buying one soon for sure

i have one of the beetle and its a male one and i name it Heracross

1:41 Without watching anymore of the video, i'mma just go out on a limb and guess Allomyrina dichotoma (Rhino bettle) like it says in the title. Did I guess it correctly?

wow, I've never been into beetles but this video kind of made me want to get a couple :)

absolutely beautiful insects! 👍

its Heracross!!!

Omg you sound like cook from skins

Truly astonishing. Thank you for posting this. I'm quite interested getting a couple.

i have so many of these around my house. they love to crawl all over your shirt and they never let go

I wanna deep fry it and eat it

why would you wanna keep insects as pets wtf?

I’m probably getting some rhino beetles soon, can’t wait!

Very cool beetles!

They are stunning

Aww your new pet beetle it's so cute

Amazing video! Those are some cool beetles especially that male one.

They’re so adorable

Such remarkable specimens! I may get some! Thanks for the video!

That is a beautiful beetle.

She likes you already! Thanks for sharing!

Wow I never knew beetles could be so cool!

What a cute pair!

So cute!!!

Fascinating little fellows, lol! Thanks for sharing.

As a beetle pet caretaker i know it is hard to get them off your hands! They just decide to sleep on them lol

Awww, how cute!

Oh, I want these too! They are awesome! I watched your video out of order. I watched the one where you try some jelly first. You won't believe what I thought you were eating at first. I thought you were eating beetle guts. LOL! That was before I watched this video and saw that it is beetle food. :)

where do you get your beetles ive been looking i cant find anything but dead dry ones with pins

Wow they are amazing

Wow baby insects so cute!

They're beautiful.

Wow that male is one stunning insect. They're beautiful, I hate people who hate on arthropods, they're hating on some of the most beautiful, and most important creatures on Earth. I've had insects in the past, hissing cockroaches, South African Chafers and many stick insects. Considering beetles as my next move, despite my husband disliking them, I feel having a beetle or two around will help educate him and others I know on just how important our insects are.

hey brother, when keeping these as grubs does the substrate have to be moist or just leave it alone?

omg i want one soo badly, they are gorgeous

so cute!!

When you're keeping these beetles, how tall would you recommend making their home? I know they are clumsy but able fliers, and if something flies, then it should be free to do so and that should be provided for when working out a home for them.

really cute beetle dude.

do they clip the wings on these bad boys to stop them from flying away or are they normally docile like that im interested in keeping a pair

綺麗でカッコいい！

I got an Atlas breeding pair. and I absolutely love them both. male is absolutely MASSIVE

she's like "noooo don't put me back in that aweful place"

the only inverts iv'e kept are tarantulas and true spiders but these guys look awesome dangit i want one now lol thanks :D

when taking them off your hand do you have to worry too much about ripping their limbs off by accident?

I wanted a beetle especially a Hercules beetle, those are awesome.

recently ive become really interested in keeping insects especially tarantulas but i have a fear of arachnids, watching these videos is helping me get over my fear even the beetle ones they look so cute :'3

Dumb question, but do they bite? As in painfully so. I can get an idea of the pinching because beetles can be shockingly strong, but mandibles are usually something else altogether.

What website that I can order a beetle please answer me I'm a beetle whisperer

do those jellies come with the beetles and is it that all they need to survive?

aww so cute when the male was eating haha
