Center for the Arts, Vermont The Beautiful Tiger Beetle is
a desert dweller. At less than an inch long it scurries across the sand
leaving a mysterious trail of tiny tracks. It is a dazzling insect with iridescent
russet markings on its back and iridescent green legs. Beware, it is a
fierce predator with formidable jaws. |
