These Dung Beetles Won’t Let Buffalos Slow Them Down 🪲 Dung Dynasty | Smithsonian Channel

A group of dung beetles are on high alert: they’ve sniffed out a new delivery of their favorite food, courtesy of a herd of stampeding buffalos. Now, this beetle just has to roll his ball of dung back to the den – all while fighting off the competition.

Imagine if some humans could fly and some could not. I would be so upset if I couldn’t 😤😂

So unfortunate that pesticides are not good for these beetles. They are so needed for the ecosystem. Beautiful photography.

Although I am a big critic of this channel for their ultra short videos, this one was a riot! Come on... "Caviar of Dung". And others. Very creative and entertaining narration.
You outdone yourselves in this one!

probably the only eco friendly way to dispose our poops

I've only ever seen them as a monster in a game online. I am glad now I can see the real thing. Cute the way they roll up the dung.

WHY DID YOU HAVE TO ADD THE SOUNDS LOL

[treck]

Didn't need all the adjectives and noises describing poop @Smithsonian.

"Dung beetle eating poop"
Moviemaker : increase the sound like asmr !!

[semiramisrysb]

Do they actually make those sounds? Hehe it sounds like rubber 😆

This shown me that no matter what animal you are, there’s always an Opp to watch out for

[yusufamrullah]

I never know that feses is worth to fight for

[shannonw.]

I don’t appreciate the sounds or the slushee comparison

[adobemastr]

I enjoy these videos from the Smithsonian but don’t like the artificial, added sound effects, like what the beetles allegedly make when they are fighting.

Only time i came across the dung beetle was from that movie the interview with james franco lol they gave him that name as code name 😂

Bout right spend too much time sculpting and free loaders will try to steal it! It's the same all over even in Dung land
