It explains where they live in South American rainforests, their humid undergrowth habitat, and their life cycle spent mostly as grubs in the soil feeding on decaying wood.

That's the titan beetle, one of the largest insects in the world. This gigantic critter can grow up to 6.5 inches long, which is about the length of a dollar bill! Its strong, spiky legs are perfect for climbing and its giant jaws can snap pencils in half!  \nAfter meeting our big friend, let's explore where it lives. Titan beetles call the rainforests of South America home. They like to hang out in the undergrowth, where it's hot and humid, just the way they like it. And guess what? Most of their life they spend as grubs, buried deep in the soil, munching on decaying wood.  \nHaving learned about their home, let's see how these giants interact with other creatures. Despite their scary looks, titan beetles aren't a threat to humans unless provoked. In the wild, they have few predators due to their hard, tough shell and their powerful jaws. However, they are often sought after by collectors and scientists due to their size and rarity.  \nNow that we've made friends with titan beetles, let's uncover some unique facts about them.
