The G'dar Beetle is a powerful guardian beast of the Gourmet World, and one of the several flying beast of Shangri-La. Born in a long line of Guardian beetles, this lofty insect guards the Gates of Shangri-La and protects the city with fierce determination. It is said that if the Beetle is unable to protect the city it will release a special call that can summon its Queen, the Shambala Bird.
It's wing shells have a similar effect of the Ozone Herb's leaves, in that they absorb harmful radiation and air born pullouts. Making them ideal components for cooking wares that use harsh or toxic ingredients. Harvesting of the shell is incredibly dangerous and nearly impossible, as the beast dies if the wings are forcibly removes and if the shell is molted they are extremely quick to spoil. However, if the wings can be preserved the instant they're shed, they can be forged into pots, pans, and other utensils that sell in the high hundred millions.
