Real Life

The Robust Cicada is a new bug that was introduced in Animal Crossing: City Folk. It is very similar to the Walker Cicada.

How to Catch

This bug is fairly easy to catch, but the difficult part is finding it without disturbing it and making it fly away. Look for a bug on the tree's trunk. Once you find it, get a few space way from it and then turn around to face it. Get out your net. Now, run forward and when you are close enough, swing your net and hope for the best.
