Banded Dragonfly Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

I did it! Did you see that? I caught a banded dragonfly!

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  The banded dragonfly is known for its black-and-yellow-striped body, as welll as for its piercing green eyes.

 And it is those very eyes that help make dragonflies master hunters, you see.

 Alas, when one looks at me, I can't help but feel it is sizing me up for a meal!

 Hoot! The horrors! Look away, fiend!

I wonder why it seems to be such a big deal to us when we catch one. If it's a common bug and it's only worth 4.500 yet the character seems to be super excited (inference from how the "I DID IT!" is huge and in all caps)
