I'll have to look up this Goliathus and see what his look is. Nicely done Haiku to inform us about this insect. Keep the informative pen flowing. Sara

That's a nice take on a beetle... Good writing! I would like to visit Africa sometime and see the wonders of their insects and animals. I am a lover of nature, been that way since I was a child. Regards, Sena
