Tiger beetles are beautiful insects with bright colours and large markings. They sit seductively near on vast forest walks or sandy beaches, sunbathing. However, as soon as you go too close, they vanish. Tiger beetles are among the fastest insects you'll ever see, making them tough to photograph and even more difficult to capture.
Tiger beetles run fast enough to traverse the distance and catch their prey despite being temporarily incapacitated. You might be wondering how a beetle that can't see can run so rapidly without colliding with anything.
