I feel like an idiot for never knowing that's what beetles look like when they're young.
Depends on the family the beetles are classified into, actually. Some, like meal beetles or Zophobias beetles have a thick, chitinous exoskeleton as larvae. Others, like lady bugs, have larvae coated with little individual spines to make them less appetizing for predators, along with the secretions they emit.
