Is it fair to say that dung beetles have a special place in your heart?

Yes, they do.

Because they're the prettiest when they're clean.

Really? The prettiest? They come in all sorts of shapes and all sorts of colors.

They have knobs and horns.

The Australian dung beetles were perfectly suited to take care of that rock-hard Aussie poop.

They have mouth parts like knives so they can eat that hard dung.

And now the cattle come and make soupy poop.
