      My gf told me I couldn’t tell her this moth was a real thing. This link came in handy, thank you!

      This was posted before the collision of the Indian subcontinent plate into Asia and the formation of the Himalayas.

    Hmm. Dubbed “most interesting” because of its beauty. That’s a bit shallow don’t you think?

    I wonder if it survives because its bizarre appearance makes predators too confused to consider eating it, haha.

      Predators keep debating the meaning, intentions and technique and before they know the month fly away.

    If my understanding of brightly-colored bugs is correct, then that mouth is ultra fucking poisonous to eat.

    If they weren’t so rare I wonder how many people would catch, dry and cast in resin to make jewelry with them.
