Description:

I found this individual sprinting across the lot of a gas station. At first, I was still holding the gas pump while my grandmother got pizza, so I could only follow it with my eyes for a while; but when the gas finished filling, I had the beetle running along my arm over and over (not an easy task), though it did stop and rest on my wrist eventually. It stayed there while I brought it home to my backyard (which is where the picture was taken). I saw multiple other individuals during the spring this one was found, including at least five in one night around midnight on my driveway and front yard (in addition to the numerous june beetles).
