The Beetlely Beetle (summer 2000-January 2005)
Rest in Peace little Beetlely Beetle, our little Tenebrionid Darkling Beetle, you were a good beetle who traveled many miles from your home, who had many adventures escaping from your habitat in our old apartment for days at a time, and disappearing in our current home for over a month only to miraculously reappear in our china cabinet. Who knows how old you really were when we found you on that mountain years ago. You loved nibbling on your cheerios and banana chips, but most of all you loved chewing on pine cones. It's amazing Greenbean didn't try to eat you. You will be missed.
