Here Are the Animal Crossing Fish & Bugs That Are Leaving in September

The month of September is coming to a close in the real world and in Animal Crossing: New Horizons as well! Those warm nights will soon be gone in exchange for cool, breezy autumn weather. You can already taste the sweet Halloween candy and pumpkin spice.

Not only are the seasons changing in Animal Crossing, but there are also new fish and bugs to catch in October, but that also means that some critters are going away too.

Before the month closes out, you want to make sure that you can catch all that you can. If you check out the lists below, you can see all of the fish, bugs, and sea creatures leaving in September in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Go catch ’em all!
