Rhinoceros Beetle, World's Strongest Animal - The XO Directory

hinoceros Beetles (or Rhino beetles) is considered the world's strongest animal and among the largest of beetles. They are capable of lifting up to 850 times their own weight. They are a subfamily (Dynastinae) of beetles in the family of scarab beetles (Scarabaeidae).

Rhinoceros beetles are also the strongest animals on the planet, proportionally. They can lift up to 850 times their own weight. To put this into perspective, if a human of average height and weight had the strength of the rhinoceros beetle, it would be able to lift a 65 ton object, for example, an Abrams Tank.
