dorbeetle definition and meaning

What is a "dorbeetle"?

A dorbeetle, also known as the dung beetle or tumblebug, is a fascinating insect that is highly adapted to living in and around animal dung. These beetles have a shiny black or metallic green body and strong wings, allowing them to fly and locate fresh dung piles for food and breeding. Dorbeetles are adept at rolling dung into balls, which they then bury in the ground as a food source and for laying eggs. They play a crucial role in the ecosystem by helping to decompose dung, recycle nutrients, and improve soil health.
