Nympho Homicidal Carrion Beetles

by Andy on November 10, 2007

From InsectPod:

Carrion beetles need a tiny corpse, such as a dead mouse or vole, in order reproduce. When they find one, they use pheromones to attract a mate. After mating, the male and female stay together until their young are raised. As with any healthy relationship, the first thing the young couple must do is hide the body. Over the next 24 hours, they bury the corpse and dig a crypt around it, stopping to mate, on average, about 70 times.

Well, when all is said and done there’s nothing hornier than a corpse.
