Feehan: Typical dung beetle tunnelling system

John, a retired CSIRO scientist, describes Dung Beetles as ultimate recyclers, burying dung, improving soil quality and reducing pests like flies.

John studied dung beetles at the CSIRO until funding for the project ceased. He then started a business supplying dung beetles best suited to the climate and conditions of the area to farmers all over Australia.
