Whirligig beetles protect themselves primarily through their unique swimming behavior and physical adaptations. They are excellent swimmers, using their flattened bodies and long legs to navigate quickly on the water's surface, allowing them to evade predators. Additionally, their ability to swim in circular patterns creates a visual distraction, making it harder for predators to focus on them. Moreover, their dark coloration helps them blend in with the water's surface, providing further camouflage from potential threats.
