Yep, used to try and catch them when I was a kid in Texas. They're much quicker than the ones is this vid, and would alternate between running and flying for short distances.
They are bloody awesome, I could have watched them all night! I just love watching these guys, what will you name them? They reminded me of Ronnie and reggie! I would definitely like an update! I may not be around for a while I have pneumonia so I may hospitalised for a while!
Very nice reminds me when i had some ground beetle larva with those teefs lol also it could have been having a drink from the wet sand maybe instead of just digging looked that way to me keep up the good work :)
I don't think they were digging.. I think they were thirsty and was drinking the water from the sand. And the 1st was trying to drink the water drops on the side I bet if u added water bowl then they would drink. Thanks for the video it was great they r beautiful
I have these in my backyard, the pan-american bigheaded tiger beetle, nevermind after further research it would appear I mistook them for their cousin lol 😂, also it’s not digging that’s how they drink
I had One of these order it from thepetfactory but when i got it to Sweden died after few Days Guess she took to much hits on it way but hope ill be abel buy new One soon
Not out of the realms of possibility that those could be bred in captivity bud. Tiger Beetles don't have too specific requirements, bar potential time as a larvae and maybe subtleties of the substrate...Many species have larvae that burrow a lot like Ant-Lions. Hope you or Tony have some unexpected success somewhere anyway :).
Stunning beetles, Sam! I like the enclosure, I can't wait to see what they do with it!
Thankyou!
Neat little critters. Like the set-up.
Excellent video, fantastic beetles, icky footage. :D
Haha thanks dude. They like RuNning
The larva of tiger beetles are just as ferocious.
Great video with those beetles attacking the worm can't weight to see vs the big caterpillar how the beetle would do.
brilliant, thank you
Six-Spotted Tiger Beetles are super common in my area (Texas, down by Houston) once I catch one I’ll start showcasing them, and their home 😁
