EN: rhinoceros beetle
This is that big, black, shiny beetle with a horn that looks like it's ready for a medieval joust. Kids in the province sometimes catch them, tie a string to them, and make them fight. It's the 'bodybuilder' of the beetle world. Not to be confused with 'uwang', which can be a more general term for any large beetle.
Katutubong salita sa mga wika sa Pilipinas.
Often found in rural or provincial areas, especially near coconut trees. The term is more specific than the general 'salagubang'.
