Default The bug seemed less adept at moving the poo.

Maybe those flags are to help the beetles find their prize.

Here is a quick video of the Florida Dung Beetle -- is this similar to what you witnessed?

The Florida dung beetle in that youtube really gets around.

The one that I discovered under the poop yesterday at Doggie Doo Run Run was a smaller beetle than the youtube one and seemed to be in some kind of hole. It was taking bites out of the feces from the top off the hole and trying to move it off the hole. I kind of got the impression that the pooch involved actually pooped on top of the bug's hole???
