I caught a scarab beetle! It's just a dung beetle with better hobbies.

Blathers Information

Collectors consider the scarab beetle quite the prize, thanks to its shiny metallic shell. But did you know this bug has no nose and uses its antennae to sense smells instead? In fact, the scarab beetle's plated antennae are quite unique and set it apart from other beetles. But ALL antennae are equally awful in my book.
