davehuth Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 An MSU entomologist has an interesting public education project about the insects of the greater Yellowstone ecosystem that includes a beetles section: http://www.montana.edu/yellowstoneinsects/coleoptera/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JKim Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 I do not aware of any large-sized scarabs in Wyoming... You should keep an eye out for park rangers, if you are collecting inside the boundary of Yellowstone National Park It is ILLEGAL to collect organisms in national parks without a proper permit. Right outside the boundary should be OKAY without a permit. Different parks and forests have different regulations and restrictions. You would not want park rangers to point a gun at you, right?
