Donating to the museum[edit]
Like all bugs in the Animal Crossing series, the drone beetle can be donated to the museum by talking to Blathers, the curator. He will tell the player some information about it when the player donates it.
In Animal Crossing[edit]
"They're called beetles, wot? The lugs of the insect world. Insects with armor plating on their backs, you know. Their armor, it...opens up, revealing wings, which they use to fly. It's really quite unnatural. Then, there's that thin membrane-like covering where their heads connect to their bodies. Most foul!"
In New Horizons[edit]
"I must say, the drone beetle is like that boorish acquaintance who is much too loud for polite company. That is, it is a large bug with a square head and is so named for the droning noise it makes when it flies. Furthermore, it has hooks on its feet that help it to cling tightly to trees. HOOK FEET... How gauche!"
