This chapter deals with the traces produced by extant dung beetles. They had been already described by the ancient Egyptians until Fabre introduced detailed observations in the scientific literature by the end of the nineteenth century. Some of Fabre’s observations are included herein to provide some examples of dung beetle behavior and traces.
