Stag beetle loggery
Royal Botanic Gardens
Kew, Richmond
London, September 2003
“The remarkable stag beetle loggery at Kew Gardens. This giant beetle model is an educational exhibit with the added aim of providing a home for saproxylic insects (those which feed on decaying wood), and in particular to provide a safe haven for stag beetles which are globally endangered. It is found in the conservation area of Kew Gardens around Queen Charlotte’s cottage, kept wild. London is a stronghold for stag beetles.” (Stag beetle loggery at Kew Gardens, Wild Britain Map)
