When the OLE detects danger such as too much heat, it can roll into a ball. Its shell then protects the delicate electronic innards from heat ranging to 1,300 degrees celsius. When it’s not balled up, it’s six legs can move it at around 10-20km per hour, depending on environmental conditions. The researchers estimate that a 7,000 square foot forest area could be protected by 30 of the fire fighting beetles. I think people would light more fires just to watch these things show up. Cool idea though.
