Uncle Bob Devine gets a visit from Betsy the Burying Beetle. Betsy is a small black beetle who can lift 100 times her own weight with her legs. The American burying beetle used to live in 35 of the states in the USA. Now they are found in only 10 states. Betsy and her mate find dead animals such as mice and birds. They move the dead to their den and burynit for their young to eat. To find out more listen to today's Nature Corner.
