To locate the Rime Beetle, head to the Iceshard Cliffs region. Remember, this isn't as simple as setting a waypoint and letting your Seikret guide you there. You'll need to rely on your keen observation skills and a bit of luck. The Rime Beetle is known for rolling up balls of packed snow, making it relatively easy to spot in snowy areas.
Focus your search in Areas 2, 7, 8, 11, and 13 of the Iceshard Cliffs. As you traverse these snow-laden zones, keep an eye out for the telltale snowballs. If you come across tracks in the snow, follow them; they might lead you straight to a Rime Beetle.

Capturing the Rime Beetle requires the use of your Capture Net, which should already be part of your gear. To equip it, hold L1/LB and scroll to the Capture Net, then press Square/X. Aim with L2/LT, and when the Rime Beetle is in your crosshairs and turns orange, fire away to add it to your collection. Successfully capturing the beetle will fulfill Samin's request.
If you choose to collect the Rime Beetle manually or with the Hook Slinger, you'll obtain Frost Pods instead, which can be used to inflict ice damage on enemies in Monster Hunter Wilds.
That covers everything you need to know about locating and capturing Rime Beetles in *Monster Hunter Wilds*. For more tips and insights on the game, be sure to explore The Escapist.
