Saw Stag Additional Info

Dialogue When Caught

I caught a saw stag! Now I can't unsee it!

Dialogue When Donated to Blathers

  The saw stag got its name from the shape of its pincers. That is, its pincers look like jagged saws!

  And I tell you, the bigger the beetle, the more saw-like teeth its giant jaws have.

  I say the saw stag seems more at home in a horror film than in nature. I have terrified myself just talking about it.
