Description: English: Desert Stink Beetle - Eleodes hispilabris, Great Basin National Park, Baker, Nevada. These are fun to watch - they race around with their butt toward you trying to spray you with a stinky secretion. You don't want to get too close, as some can spray as far away as 10 to 20 inches. According to the DesertUSA website, the spray "does not wash off". Date: 13 July 2014, 12:56:06. Source: https://www.flickr.com/photos/52450054@N04/14756663012/. Author: Judy Gallagher.
