my partner's mom's boyfriend is part of a local search and rescue team, he found this in the woods during one of this runs. I currently have it degreasing 🌿💙
My first ever terrarium, with a groundhog skull I found and processed. I hope the moss takes well!
Basically my whole collection!! Maybe tomorrow I can pin the beetles
