Peter Clausen Posted December 24, 2009 Report Share Posted December 24, 2009 Very interesting link! I don't understand why the men tap their sticks behind the beetles while they fight. And how do they decide to turn the roller device that the beetles are sitting on? But the winner was obvious! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mashku Posted December 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 25, 2009 Hello Peter, they tap with their stickt to animate the Males to fight. Inside the Bamboo Roll is a female Xylotrupes gideon. I think it works with Pheromone, so that the Male X. gideon Beetles are extra animated to fight. The Movie is from Thailand, every Year they make there Showfighting with Beetles (and similar)... greetings, mashku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter Clausen Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 Thanks for the additional information, Mashku. That's really interesting! I wish Americans had a bit more interest in bug-sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
