- This is a museum specimen. I don't think they can survive for centuries without being dead. :) Jkadavoor (talk) 09:43, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
- I prefer that the photos used to illustrate our animal articles be photos of live animals if possible. Kaldari (talk) 08:49, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
- That seems a good point. But focus stacked photos have more details and so more identification information than in a in vivo photo. Focus stacking for a restless subject is very difficult. Jkadavoor (talk) 17:42, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
- I prefer that the photos used to illustrate our animal articles be photos of live animals if possible. Kaldari (talk) 08:49, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
- This photo is already featured in Commons. Alborzagros (talk) 14:37, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
- Support I confirm that despite his good looks he is dead. There is no concurecne between images of live insects and mounted specimen. The two are complementary. --Archaeodontosaurus (talk) 15:02, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
- Support Great quality and EV. It doesn't matter if the beetle is dead. Armbrust, B.Ed. WrestleMania XXVIII The Undertaker 20–0 07:14, 10 October 2012 (UTC)
