The Hercules Beetle is a rare insect in the Animal Crossing series. It is one of highest priced insects in the games, alongside the Golden Stag Beetle. It can be found on Palm Trees at night, between 7 PM and 8 AM, during the months of July and August. It sells for 12,000 Bells. Its shape is compared with the Dynastid Beetle. In Animal Crossing: City Folk and Animal Crossing: New Leaf, when donated, it is seen fighting the Golden Stag.
Donating to the Museum
In Wild World
Upon donating the Hercules Beetle to the Museum, Blathers will comment:
"The hercules beetle is known as the largest beetle in the world, eh wot? It's those mammoth horns! Yes, the horns are its claim to fame... But inspect them, and you'll see they're covered in hair! Blech! Hairy horns... Frankly, I can't think of anything more vile..."
In City Folk
Upon donation to the Museum, Blathers the curator will say;
"Hoo now... The largest dynastid beetle around! I must say, those horns are simply magnificent! Dynastid beetles move fairly slowly, so you're free to view them at your own pace, eh wot? I must heartily endorse any insect that has the decency to move slowly and predictably. Well done!"
After donation, the Hercules beetle can be found on the second tier of the insect section in the first enclosure, walking on the tree stump towards the back. Once the golden stag beetle has also been donated, both will fight on the stump, picking each other up and tipping one another over.

Further Information
The Hercules Beetle is the most famous and largest of the rhinoceros beetles. It is native to the rainforests of Central America and South America. The size of this beetle includes the length of its horn, which without, would make it ranked lower down - some females (which are considerably smaller excluding the horn), can exceed the size of the male Hercules beetle by body alone. The Hercules beetle is considered the strongest creature on earth for its size - it can handle 850 times its own body weight. They eat decaying fruit and the larvae of the beetle spends one to two years tunneling into rotten wood.
Trivia
