Here in Florida, we have this nifty little doggy poo cleaners, and no I don't mean my husband. When we got our first dog, I noticed that every morning the yard was cleaned of all poo. I thought my husband was cleaning it. He said I was crazy. Then one day Caitlin and I noticed a beetle dragging poo into a hole. We watched in fascination as it quickly and efficiently cleaned up the yard for us. They do hibernate in the winter, so we are on our own then and they only like it fresh, LOL! So why am I talking about this? Because the kids are thinking of doing a presentation at 4H County Events on the Dung Beetle. Watch the beetle at work in the video. No that is not me filming the event.

wow, never knew that, what a very good information indeed, good luck on kids presentation.
Do you think you could send me a few up here? They probably wouldn't last long in our cold but I would love to have them until then.
Thanks Betchai. It isn't until Jan so they have plenty of time to collect their data.
Anne I will gladly mail you some. Can you find out the laws for shipping live animals across state lines? LOL it is getting too cold now anyways. They are already getting ready to hibernate and we are still in the sixties at night.
