Arizona Elephant Beetle Male

Description

Megasoma punctulatum (males only) is the US cousin to the giant Elephant Beetles that range from Mexico to South America. The specimen in the photo was from our first captive generation quite a few years ago and measured 40 millimeters. None of the ones sold through this listing will be super major males like that, sorry. Size varies and if you order multiples we will endeavor to give you various sizes but none of them will look like the captive-bred ones since these are wild caught males and the one in the photo is the largest captive-bred one we’ve ever produced.

MALES only available, as titled. These are offered as a novelty rather than a longterm pet. They are adults with short lifespans but you’ve never seen one of these before and they are from one of the coolest genera (Megasoma) of beetles on Earth!

We offer them sweet liquids like watered down maple syrup or sweet, non-citrus fruit juices, or jelly, etc.
