Sh*t happens!

Every organism has its role in nature but perhaps none are more important than the much loved dung beetle.  Its role as the bush sanitation engineer has raised its lowly profile to gargantuan proportions and every safari goer gleans as much pleasure from watching their ball rolling antics as they do from seeing the mighty elephant.
