The American burying beetle is an insect that plays an extremely important role in the ecosystem of the eastern United States. The beetle is also well-known for being included in the book Hope for Animals and Their World by Jane Goodall. In this book, Jane Goodall shares her enthusiasm for this little animal. Goodall is not only enthusiastic about the animal due to its importance. She also discusses how conservation efforts have helped the once dramatically threatened beetle population.

Lou Perrotti (director of conservation programs at the Roger Williams Park Zoo in Providence, Rhode Island) and Jack Mulvena (executive director of the Rhode Island Zoological Society and Roger Williams Park Zoo) were both instrumental in helping the beetle population recover. Goodall conveys the importance of this story, as well as the importance of the beetle, by using several rhetoric devices, such as logos (argument from logic) and pathos (argument from emotion).
