    I saw those for the first time ever earlier this year. There were about 20 of them eating a dead sunfish. Not sure what they are though…

    We need to get Pug from the fishing side over here. He is our resident nature boy. I think I’ve saw this bug before, but don’t recall where.

    I believe that is a Carrion Beetle. They eat decaying flesh.

    I’ve seen them consuming large rotten mushrooms a couple times at my cabin.
