EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this close-up, wildlife photographer Steve Hopkin introduces us to the bizarre and slightly chubby world of cockchafer larvae. Hailing from the United Kingdom, these young grubs may not win any beauty contests, but they sure know how to make an impression! With their fat bodies and peculiarly shaped heads, these rook worms are a sight to behold. Their unique appearance can only be described as a cross between a beetle and a cockroach – talk about an unexpected combination! But don't let their looks fool you; these pests play an essential role in our gardens. While some might find them ugly or even repulsive, there's no denying that they have character. Just look at those expressive faces! These European critters are masters of survival and adaptability. So next time you stumble upon one of these fascinating creatures while gardening in the UK, take a moment to appreciate their quirky charm up close. Who knows? You might just discover that beneath that "ugly" exterior lies something truly beautiful – nature's way of reminding us that appearances aren't everything!
