The Raja Brooke butterfly, I must tell you, is one of the larger [[Tiger Butterfly|tiger butterflies]]. Naturally, its antennae and proboscis also rank as some of the largest around. Be not proud, vile beast! Your cute red collar and fancy name do not fool Blathers!"''

| |
| − | | |
| − | :''"Raja Brooke butterflies have red heads and a red strip around their necks, giving the look of a collar. They are known to drink hot-spring water and often hang around water flowing up from the ground. While males are vibrantly green, females are much more commonly seen with brown wings."''

| |
| − | The butterfly is actually a type of [[Birdwing Butterfly|birdwing]]. It has distinctive black and electric-green markings, which are more prominent in the males, while the females have white markings. Both have a red head and another strip of red afterward, which is called a collar. It was named by Alfred R. Wallace in 1855, after James of Sarawak, the ''Rajah of Sarawark''. It is also called the ''Rajah Brooke butterfly'', sometimes mistaking the ''Animal Crossing'' spelling as a mistake - though both are acceptable. They can be found in the rainforests of Borneo and the Malaysian Peninsula, and is featured as the national butterfly of Malaysia. It is registered as being under protection.
