Venusian Sporebeetle

The Venusian Sporebeetle was a dangerous animal found on Venus. They had a poisonous sting which could knock a person out for hours and could spray acid. They were preserved by the Cytherians when Venus was becoming uninhabitable. Billions of years later, they were released after the Venusians terraformed Venus to support life. Some Sporebeetles were captured in Amtor's zoo. When the Sixth Doctor, Ursina and George Litefoot were trying to escape Amtor, the Doctor released a Sporebeetle to distract the soldiers chasing them.
