Donating to the museum[edit]

As with all insects in the Animal Crossing series, the horned atlas can be donated to the museum by talking to Blathers, who will give a small talk on it.

In Wild World[edit]

"I find most things about beetles like this repellant, but the MOST repellant are the thin wings that they keep hidden inside. You know of what I speak? After landing, seeing that little piece of wing sticking out of their backs! Blech! Just another example of how insects scoff at proper manners and tidiness!"

In City Folk[edit]

"Crowned with three horns, the atlas beetle is known as the strongest of the dynastid beetles. Blech, I wonder if it had three horns when it was in its larval form... I simply loathe larvae. All squishy and squirmy... Nightmarish, really."

After donation, the atlas beetle can be found on the middle terrace, on the first palm tree overlooking the Scorpion, Tarantula and rafflesia flower.

In New Leaf[edit]

The horned atlas, as known in the game, is displayed on the upper-left room of the bug exhibit with the following description:

"Horned atlases are still known as the strongest of the dynastid beetles. The 3 horns make them look like a mash-up of a dynastid beetle and a stag beetle! In the pupal stage, they already have 3 horns and tend to be pretty strong."

In New Horizons[edit]

"Beware the horned atlas! I tell you, this rhinoceros beetle is known for its violent temperament! The males use the three large horns on their heads to fight amongst each other for dominance. But it is their young that truly give me the cold sweats. You see, their larvae grow quite large and, worst of all...they bite! It is the stuff of nightmares, I say."

Real-world information[edit]

The Atlas beetle, Chalcosoma atlas, and Caucasus beetle, Chalcosoma causasus, are found in southern Asia, particularly Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam. The two species both exhibit extreme sexual dimorphism: while females are typically around 4 to 6 cm in length, males can reach 13 cm (with Caucasus beetles slightly larger than Atlas beetles), one third of which can be the three large horns for which the beetles are known. These horns are used by the males to fight for mating rights. The males have a reputation as the strongest animals relative to body size, able to lift more than 800 times their body weight. Their strength, combined with their aggressiveness during mating duels, have made the beetles quite popular with local gamblers.

While very similar, the two beetles can be distinguished by the shape of the lower horn and the texture of the females' skin. Caucasus beetles have a small "tooth" that juts upward from the middle of the horn, while Atlas beetles' horns curve more smoothly. Female Atlas beetles have somewhat prickly skin, while female Caucasus beetles are rougher.
