Impressive with its large, antler-shaped mandibles, the stag beetle is one of Europe's largest beetles. It can be found in forests, parks, and sometimes gardens, where it flies heavily at dusk during the summer.
In males, these spectacular mandibles are not used for feeding, but to intimidate rivals during fights to attract a female. Surprisingly, despite its imposing appearance, the stag beetle is harmless to humans. Its larva lives for several years in dead wood before transforming into an adult, thus playing an important role in the recycling of organic matter.
This Papo figurine realistically reproduces the stag beetle: a robust body, imposing mandibles, and precise details. An ideal model to complete a collection of insects and garden animals, create naturalistic stories, or raise children's awareness of the importance of insects in the balance of nature.
