A new month in Animal Crossing: New Horizons doesn't just mean new fish and bugs to catch, but also a handful of fish and bugs that are going away. You can hit up last month's list to see what's missing now that April is over, but if you want to look ahead and focus on what's going away in June, we have you covered. Whether you have a Northern or Southern Hemisphere island, here's every fish and bug leaving Animal Crossing at the end of May.
Fish And Bugs Leaving After May
Fish are first spotted in bodies of water as shadows, which come in a variety of sizes. We have a fish shadow size guide you'll want to use to get a better idea of what the shadow sizes (which we label 1-6) look like in-game. All fish listed below have their corresponding shadow size next to them for easier identification.
Northern Hemisphere
| Fish | Location/Size | Time | Price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Golden Trout | River (Clifftop) / 3 | 4 PM - 9 AM | 15,000 |
| Oarfish | Sea / 6 | All day | 9,000 |
| Loach | River / 2 | All day | 400 |
