I usually see females around July so I guess I will have to wait.

That sucks! I've seen some birds eating beetles so maybe some birds are feeding on L. caprelous.

no, i just figured it out, it's chipmunks!!!! found a half eaten male by a chipmunk hole. I'm gonna throw some ajax and scrubbing bubbles in that chipmunk hole and teach it not to mess with them!!!

I never knew that they feed on stag beetles. That's interesting.
