Real-world 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 considerably smaller than other species. Some females can exceed the size of the male Hercules beetle by body alone. The hercules beetle is considered the strongest creature on earth relative to 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.

- ↑ Possibly due to a developer oversight, tree insects can not spawn on palm trees, or fruit trees that do not currently bear fruit. Due to its exclusivity to Animal Island, catching the Hercules Beetle requires planting a non-palm tree on the island.
