Two stag beetles are facing each other on dry, cracked dirt. They appear to be fighting, with their large mandibles interlocked. One beetle is on the left, facing right, and the other is on the right, facing left. The beetles are dark brown and black, with visible legs and antennae. The ground is a muted gray-brown, with some scattered dry leaves and debris. The lighting suggests it is daytime.
