The '''dung beetle''' is a [[bug]] in the {{SER}} introduced in {{DnMe+}}. Beginning in {{WW}}, they appear during [[winter]], rolling snowballs. In {{DnMe+|nolink}}, they instead appear from [[spring]] to [[fall]] and roll the soccer, basketball, or volleyball balls found around the player's town.
+
'''Dung Beetles''' (フンコロガシ, ''Funkorokashi'') in the {{SER}} are an unspecified species of dung beetle that can only be caught when snow settles in the [[winter]], from early [[December]] to late [[February]]. They roll [[snowmen|snowballs]] around town, a substitution for the balls of dung that their real-life counterparts roll. They can be sold for 800 Bells prior to {{NH}}, in which they are worth 3,000 bells. They cannot be caught on another player's island in {{NH|nolink|short}}, since snowballs and snowmen temporarily vanish while the airport gates are open. Dung Beetles fly away when approached. In {{DnMe+}}, they will roll [[balls]] of any kind around town.

Members of the [[insect]] family '''Scarabaeidae''' feed almost exclusively on feces and decaying matter. Many species have a good sense of smell. Dung beetles lay their eggs in dung. There are around 30,000 species of ''scarabaeidae'' worldwide.
