> The males of this species have the habit to aggregate on and attempting to copulate with discarded brown "stubbies" (a type of beer bottles). The males are apparently attracted by the refraction of light produced by the glass bumps of the bottles, resembling giant females with a very similar colour and surface. > Consequently to this behaviour the species is actually threatened. Prof. Darryl Gwynne, from the Toronto University, and David Rentz have achieved the Ig Nobel Prize for their studies on Julodimorpha species behaviour. > This behavior is often given as an example of a Supernormal stimulus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julodimorpha_bakewelli https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julodimorpha_bakewelli
