Scarab beetles were thought to be sacred in Ancient Egypt and associated with the sun god Ra. They are part of the dung beetle family and can be various colors like green, brown, or black. Female scarab beetles lay eggs in the ground, and the larvae develop underground before emerging as adult beetles with wings that resemble the scarab shape. Scarab beetles live in South America and feed on tree sap, developing from egg to adult between full moons.
