There’s nothing quite like snagging a fresh Stringfish just in time before they disappear at the end of March. If this fish eludes your grasp, then a friend can mail one to you, right? Well, here’s the answer to the question of can you mail fish or bugs in Animal Crossing New Horizons?

Can You Mail Fish or Bugs in Animal Crossing New Horizons

You can send just about anything in the mail in Animal Crossing New Horizons. An axe, bells, fruit, minerals, chunks of wood and so much more. Surely, you must be able to send live creatures like fish and bugs through the mail.

Unfortunately, the answer to this question that has been on your mind is pretty lame. No, you cannot mail fish or bugs in Animal Crossing New Horizons. If you’re having some trouble catching a certain bug or fish there’s truly no way for a friend to catch it and pass it off to you.

The only thing you could do in the Stringfish situation mentioned earlier is to find someone in the Southern Hemisphere in June. That way you won’t need to wait until December to be able to catch that fish again.

If you’re playing this right at the end of March, then check out our breakdown of what fish and bugs to catch before it’s too late. This breakdown is valid for the Northern Hemisphere.

It’s a sad answer, but that’s the truth to the question of can you mail bugs or fish in Animal Crossing New Horizons? If you want to learn anything else about this game, then just check out our Guide Wiki for more useful information and remember to stick with Twinfinite.
