Sexton Beetle

Or to give him his full name, the Common Sexton Beetle. Except I'm not having that; I spend a huge amount of time out in nature and I've never seen one before.

He (or she...) is a Burying Beetle. They're unusual amongst beetles as both the male and the female continue to look after their grubs after they are born. Hmmmm I hear you ask, "how do they do that?" Well they feed them from the corpse of the dead thing they found and buried (hence burying beetle). Apparently they can smell dead things from up to a kilometer away and they fight other beetles to claim a corpse.
They get the name Sexton Beetle after a Church Sexton who's job it was to tend the graveyard.
And they're not common in my neck of the woods!
