Uwang and Salagubang
"Uwang” (Rhinoceros Beetle in English) is one
of the few beetles called by name in the Philippines.
Other beetles are referred to as "salagubang", the
generic Tagalog word for beetle. Although we can
see various pictures of Rhinoceros Beetle online,
nothing can compare to seeing one up close and
personal
From experience, I can tell you that if one gets on your clothing, it's
really impossible to get it off easily. The variety found in the Philippines is
the Asiatic Rhinoceros Beetle. They may seem formidable and vicious, but
appearance can be deceiving.
They have sharp claws and those claws can only hurt you if you get
pinched by them. Other than that, they are practically harmless. They
also have horns and there is a difference in length depending on whether
it's a male or female.
From what I understand, it's the strongest insect in the world. I'm
not willing to test the assertion.
