Meet our Blue Death-Feigning Beetle (Asbolus verrucosus)! This nocturnal beetle is endemic to the desert regions of the Southwestern United States. They are opportunistic feeders and principally consume a variety of plants, as well as carrion, if available. The Blue Death-Feigning Beetle is actually black in color, but gets its blue coloration from a waxy coating that they secrete to protect themselves from the harsh desert sun. When threatened, they roll over onto their backs and become rigid.

The blue death feigning beetle, is a species of darkling beetle native to the deserts of the Southwestern United States. They are famously known for their defense strategy of faking death, hence the common name “death feigning.” Unlike other desert beetle relatives blue death feigning beetles lack defensive glands and are unable to ward off predators with offensive smells or noxious sprays. They also lack wings, so they are unable to fly away from harm. Instead, they roll over, stick their legs
