Epic Battle Between Two Rhinoceros Beetles Caught on Camera

Whoa! This insect battle is probably one of the most unique video out there.

We've already seen epic and legendary fights in MMA, wrestling, boxing and even street fights, but we've never seen a fight between two of the most armored insect, the rhinoceros beetles.

But now we can and with a pretty good commentator. Thanks to the internet.

A video posted by a YouTube user BACA ESL shows a staged fight between two rhinoceros beetles. 

Watch the battle on the video below.

What are rhinoceros beetles?

Rhinoceros beetles or Dynastinae are a subfamily of the scarab (Scarabaeidae) beetle family. There are over 300 species of rhinoceros beetles known. 

Many rhinoceros beetles are well known for their unique shapes and large sizes. The body of an adult rhinoceros beetle is covered by a thick exoskeleton. A pair of thick wings lies atop another set of membranous wings underneath, allowing the rhinoceros beetle to fly, although not very efficiently, owing to its large size. 

Some species have been anecdotally claimed to lift up to 850 times their own weight.
