This thing was as long as my finger- a rhinocerous beetle. It was at a war memorial for Australian and British prisoners of war. The Japanese killed over 2000 of them. Most on death marches from a town to the east through the jungle to the foothills of Mt Kinabalu. They were forced on the marches when the japanese knew they had lost the war and it was all over. Only six Australians survived- by escaping.
