…Will McGugan has some unusual pets. He keeps elephant beetles, which come from Central and South America.
Elephant beetles are nocturnal, so when Will’s around, they’re not doing anything very exciting. At night, they’re very active – but who wants to watch 12 hours of beetles? So Will has developed Beetlecam, a timelapse project that should be easy enough for beginners to get to grips with. (In the video above, 24 hours of beetle activity has been condensed into two minutes.)
