Yahcha

Yahcha were a type of beetle found in the jungles of Chult.

Description
Yahcha beetles were meaty and fairly large insects&mdash;about the size of a human hand.

Behavior
They were harmless creatures that moved very slowly.

Ecology
Yahcha beetles were generally solitary. They ate worms and maggots, and were in turn quite easy to catch. Eating the meaty flesh of a yahcha beetle (whether raw or cooked) was a known treatment for blue mist fever.

History
In the late 15 century DR, yahcha beetles could be purchased in Port Nyanzaru for 1 gold piece per specimen.
