Stinkbug

Name: Stinkbug (we're not sure of the exact species, but think this is definitely a type of stinkbug)

Location found: Wild River State Park

Interesting facts: These are also called shield bugs. They produce a stinky liquid, and if you don't handle them gently, they may release that liquid on you!

Notes: It seemed to be in an area of the forest that had a lot of fungi. I wonder if they eat fungi?
