Xylotrupes ulysses
I had never seen a rhinoceros beetle in my life, except in photos, until this one, which was walking across our driveway. I picked him up and he made a strange and continuing hissing noise. He was definitely the biggest beetle I have ever seen, even bigger than our golden Christmas beetles. The width of the log he is pictured on is about 150mms wide.
