       Dynastinae or rhinoceros beetles are a subfamily of the scarab
       beetle family (Scarabaeidae). Other common names – some for
       particular groups of rhinoceros beetles – include Hercules
       beetles, unicorn beetles or horn beetles. Over 1500 species and
       225 genera of rhinoceros beetles are known.
       —Wikipedia
       Most male rhino beetles have one or more horns, resembling those
       of a rhinoceros. Females usually lack horns.

       Males use their horns to fight each other for food, mates, or
       territory. They will readily battle in captivity, even against
       other species.

       Generally, when staging a fight between two beetles, a
       cross-section of log is used for an arena. The winner is the
       beetle who shoves the other off first.

       The largest rhino beetle (and arguably the largest beetle in the
       world) is the Hercules beetle (Dynastes hercules).
