Many insects in the families Scarabaeidae, Geotrupidae, and Bucconidae are attracted to animal dung and carcasses. These beetles are collectively called dung beetles, or dung beetles. Among them, the scarab beetles, giant scarab beetles (illustration), emperor scarab beetles, and dung beetles, which belong to the Scarabaeidae family, are representative. Scarab beetles roll dung to create dung balls, which they carry underground and lay eggs in. Giant scarab beetles dig holes underground, carry dung to create dung balls, and lay eggs in them.

甲虫目コガネムシ科,センチコガネ科,コブスジコガネ科の昆虫には動物の糞や死体に集まるものが少なくない。これらの甲虫を総称してクソムシ,またはフンチュウと呼ぶ。このうちコガネムシ科に属するタマオシコガネ類,ダイコクコガネ(イラスト)類,エンマコガネ類,マグソコガネ類などは,その代表的なものといえよう。タマオシコガネ類は糞をころがして糞球をつくり,地下に運びこんでそれに産卵する。ダイコクコガネ類は地下に穴を掘り,糞を運びこみ糞球をつくってそれに産卵する。
