Donating to the museum[edit]
As with all bugs in the Animal Crossing series, the tiger beetle can be donated to the museum followed by a small talk by Blathers, the curator. A sign in the bug exhibit displays information about the tiger beetle.
In New Leaf[edit]
It can be found in the top section of the upper right room in the bug habitat of the museum.
In New Horizons[edit]
Once donated to the museum, the tiger beetle can be found around the bench up the stairs, outside the butterfly room in the main exhibit.
