Description
Giant boring beetles eat rotting wood, and thus are found in huge trees and similar places, or in underground tunnels where tree roots are available for food; they can also eat giant mushrooms or other megafungi that might be found in subterranean environments. Unlike other beetles, boring beetles operate almost like a hive or collective, and any attack against one individual is likely to attract all others within 180 feet.
