Beetle
This small monster isn't very strong but can overwhelm the unwary in great numbers.


Beetles can be found in Caves throughout Hyrule. They tend to move in swarms and will pursue prey once a target is spotted. Beetle Mounds can spawn Beetles indefinitely until they are destroyed.[3] When summoned as an Echo, they have an Echo cost of one.

Nomenclature

The Beetle's Japanese name, "Zoro Zoro", is derived from the Japanese onomatopoeia for insects skittering around.
