The bagworm (ミノムシ, Minomushi) is a common insect that first appeared in Animal Crossing, then is absent in Animal Crossing: Wild World, but reappears in Animal Crossing: City Folk and Animal Crossing: New Leaf. It appears throughout autumn and winter and can be shaken out of trees. Upon shaking, it dangles from the tree for a few seconds before disappearing back into the tree. The tree can be shaken repeatedly if the bagworm is not immediately caught. In Animal Crossing, Bagworms do not crawl back into the tree after being shaken, unless the player leaves the acre. Bagworms are quite common.
If a bagworm is released, the casing bounces to the floor and disappears.
Upon Donation to the Museum
In City Folk
Blathers will say this after taking the bagworm:
"In time, a bagworm transforms into a bagworm moth, eh wot? The bagworm's casing is really rather unfashionable, bordering on hideous. Ah, but by sticking wool threads into the bagworm's casing, you can make a little 100%-wool coat for it! Of course, that would be mad. And inside that wool coat would be a big moth, which no one needs..."
Once donated, bagworms can be found in the upper left corner of the insect room in the museum, hanging from a tree.
Further Information
Bagworms are the larvae of various species of moth that all build cacoons from environmental elements such as lichen, plant material, and sometimes silk. They measure from one to fifteen centimetres.
Bagworms can be found around the world- there are around 600 known species. The casing of the bagworm serves to protect and camoflage the larvae until it emerges as a moth.
