I spent 10 years teaching in Japan and my wife is Japanese. My students taught me to love insects. Now I love for entomology. The love of insects is a major part of Japanese youth culture. Japanese children love and admire insects. They are nothing to be afraid of. I love that attitude. I learned to raise beetles (wow...what a lot of work) in Japan. Also.....like you mentioned at the end....Japanese are not litigious. My insect-loving heart misses summer and bigs in Japan!

Actually, my love for insects is almost like a spider man story. When I was little, I accidentally stood in a harvester ant nest and I got bit. Rather than get upset, I became curious. I wanted to know why the ants bit me and I fell in love with insects. Ants in particular. If i were to go back to school it would be for entomology. Preferably studying their fossils and evolution.

Opening something like this in the west, I would be actually worried about the well being of the animals. I could see kids throwing them around without respect or even harming them on purpose. Not all kids, of course. But enough to make this a serious matter. And the saddest part of that? Without opening en exhibit like that the people won't get a chance to experience nature first hand. It's kind of a self perpetuating loop.

[@likasil]

Lion_603 I think there’s a different underlying philosophy/belief about children. Here, in NA, we believe children to be disrespectful, fearful, fragile, with a lack of honour towards anything out of ignorance due to their age and lack of life experience. That we, as adults, need to manage and direct their life lessons to protect them from themselves and ‘others’ who could bring harm to the children. So, they behave accordingly and exactly as the adults around them expect. That is part of the self-perpetuating loop.

[@petrescuework-difficultcas6581]

In a larger city nearby, there is a zoo with an insectarium. They housed a free roaming net spider (a giant beast) for years, that had her giant net built between two wooden logs. She just hung there freely (inside the insectarium) for everybody to look at. Actually this spider was stolen so often, that they at some point stopped buying new ones every time. They just were fed up with people stealing their spider right out of the net. Although I absolutely disgust spiders and almost got a heart attack when I saw that thing hanging there, it is really messed up that people can't simply appreciate what they are presented. And they always have to ruin it.

You said the prize for the winning beetle last week was that he got to sit out this week? You have to give him another prize, that ain't fair man.

[@AntsCanada]

No, Hephaestus will get next week off, too.

[@codyjamessingleton5098]

Collin Morrison no he said that the winner would get free pass on the NEXT challenge

[@nebkas2306]

[@niacinberry5]

[@milwinner1]

Next year let’s have Atlas Beetle games

[@Sderrybugs]

hello😊

[@SteelMantis]

Let an atlas beetle be the boss level for the winner to beat

[@lilxredxrida7089]

Hercules beetles are so gorgeous, I absolutely love them - especially when their shells are so green 😍

[@tanakasensei3450]

I will admit, before coming across this channel, I would see ALL insects - not just ants or cockroaches - as pests, and only moths and butterflies were worth being interested in. Now, after being able to see ants up close, I realize that they're actually rather cute in a strange way, and cockroaches are a bit like ugly ducklings of the insect world. Because of this channel, I'll admit that I've fallen in love with the creatures that have nearly every other living species outnumbered in the world. And the beetles are just amazing to look at - not just the ones featured in this video, but the ones back home in the Antiverse as well. For me, it's not just Ant Love, Cockroach Love, or Beetle Love, but rather Insect Love Forever! ...mosquitoes can still kiss my gaster.

[@TheAnga27]

#TeamHades hopefully he'll make it next week and it would be amazing to have another beetle

[@zisquirrel8495]

AC can U pls post a video where U find them I will like to watch that. Who wouldn't???

[@RejectHumanityReturn2Monke]

Mikey, you got to have our very own Palawan Stag beetle. It's a HoF on Japan's beetle wars.

[@heavyhitters3594]

It’s safe when it’s Japan. People are always respectful and mannered even kids as well. Love to visit there....

[@littleant8853]

I couldn't wait for this ,I'm so excited for the next round even though my beetle lost😁😁

[@Snoopdog2034]

By any chance is that #teamapollo

[@masonwarren3117]

So the atlas beetle isn’t a triceratops but it’s a quadraceratops

[@rociomancilla1]

[@AntsCanada]

Japan: Interacting with these beetles in this exhibit is a lesson US: Interacting with these beetles in this exhibit is a Karen away from a lawsuit

[@irfanahmed9283]

Antscanada we would love for you to bring and keep the Atlas beetles as long as they are kept separate from the rhino beetles because the Atlas beetles are more large and may trouble the rhino beetles.

[@maryg.7699]

Question of the week: My favorite beetle is a Hercules beetle because I am a sucker for beautiful colors since I am an artist and nature is one of my main media that I draw.

[@stephanienoblet8503]

I was one of those kids that picked up slugs 🐌 and told my mom look 👀 a snail 🐌 with no shell 🐚 I always loved digging in the mulch around my yard and pick up creepy crawlers

[@onsetmoviestudio741]

me too i've been begging my mom to let me get a pet bug for a long time

[@nicolepatenaude3035]

SAME

[@kennypeterson7272]

I love the Hercules beetle! They can hold 850 times their own wieght, and thier scientfic name has two people from greek mythology, Hercules, and Dionysus. These beetles also have their own filter feeding "teeth" on their horn, just like whales!

[@Alexwaltman850]

#TeamAres welcomes the challenge of competing against worthy opponents such as Hercules and Atlas beetles. All will try, NONE SHALL PREVAIL, for Ares, the god of war, will triumph over all who oppose him!

[@ethantorres4061]

yeah!!
