[00:00:22]>> Y'all I'm going to hold him is it crazy I have no clue. Whoa, he just clicked.

[00:00:56]Push.

[00:00:57]Get in.

[00:00:57]>> GET IN.

[00:01:01]>> IS THAT A TOY?

[00:01:03]>> OH MY G, that is the coolest thing ever.

[00:01:07]>> I bet he's going to Y'all this morning we have found some really cool animals and we're going to have a closure. I don't KNOW HOW WE'RE GOING TO have something without him clicking himself out.

[00:01:17]>> THAT'S WHY HE LITERALLY ACTS LIKE HE'S DEAD and then he pops up and clicks and then just runs away from his prey.

[00:01:23]>> Yeah.

[00:01:24]>> He flipped over and clicked.

[00:01:26]>> you bet those big looking eyes are for?

[00:01:30]>> They predators away.

[00:01:33]>> Yes, and his click.

[00:01:35]Yes.

[00:01:37]>> Watch our video.

[00:01:40]I bet it'd be hard to grab to eat to take a bite of it cuz he's clicking everywhere.

[00:01:45]>> Yes, let's look up what we can give him really quick.

[00:01:48]>> Aiden did it did it hold when it clicks?

[00:01:51]Um uh It hurt a little my finger when it hit it.

[00:01:57]>> So, what are the clicks for? We looked it up, didn't we?

[00:02:00]>> Yeah, the clicks, if he's on his back, it helps him get back on his feet.

[00:02:05]>> Yeah, it flips him over, don't it?

[00:02:07]>> Yeah.

[00:02:07]>> And we looked up what he eats.

[00:02:10]>> He eats um pollen and nectar.

[00:02:15]Woah.

[00:02:15]>> Yeah.

[00:02:16]>> That's cool.

[00:02:17]>> Yeah.

[00:02:18]>> Cuz bees take pollen.

[00:02:19]>> Yeah, so I bet he he might be a little bit of a pollinator.

[00:02:24]Too.

[00:02:25]Right? Cuz he gets pollen from flowers.

[00:02:27]>> though.

[00:02:28]>> Well, it doesn't matter. If he gets pollen from flower to flower, it's pollinating, right? So, you want to give him something and see if he'll eat some.

[00:02:36]>> All right, guys, we're going to go do a flower walk to see if we can find some flowers for that beetle to eat.

[00:02:44]>> Yes, we got to find him something.

[00:02:46]>> So, let's go. Come on.

[00:02:47]>> Hey, Petey.

[00:02:49]>> I will tell you one little secret.

[00:02:52]I do think he's faking dead right now.

[00:02:56]>> Yeah, he was.

[00:02:57]>> He's faking it.

[00:02:58]Yeah, he's faking dead.

[00:02:59]>> Yeah.

[00:03:00]>> All right, guys, we're going to go get some blackberry flowers and put them in >> We can like suckle in there.

[00:03:06]>> Oh, honeysuckle. Good idea.

[00:03:08]>> Hey, guys, we're going to put honeysuckle in there, too.

[00:03:11]>> Yeah.
