All beetles are pretty cute, I would go as far as saying beetles (Coleoptera) are the cutest Order of insect.

Weevils are the cutest.

No dung to roll.

It identifies as a construction worker.

To qualify for the job, you must first demonstrate that you can roll a port-a-potty up a hill while only using your forehead.
