One summer day, in the Stuttgart forest, I saw this beautiful beetle (Dorcus paralelolipipedus) walking on a dead tree. Despite the appearance of their jaws, they are completely harmless. This species is widespread in Europe and can be found in many countries. Only on that occasion I was lucky enough to see it, and it posed for some photos.

Due to the displacement of its habitat and human use of forests, the beetle is increasingly threatened and there is a possibility that it may disappear from the Earth in the future.
