Summary

Sisyphus is a fascinating insect belonging to the family Scarabaeidae. It is characterized by its robust body, measuring around 2 centimeters in length, and its striking metallic green coloration. Sisyphus is known for its unique behavior of rolling balls of dung, sometimes weighing up to 10 times its own body weight, which it uses as a food source and for reproduction. This industrious insect plays a crucial role in nutrient recycling and soil health.
