  • Amazing.

  • damn now I know why moths do this in hundreds of video games. im having a moment of zen here people.

  • wats moondust?

  • Hawkmoths are gay

  • thank god for these owls existing

  • Painful narration. Especially when he clearly ought to say 'unceremoniously' and says 'ceremoniously' instead. Quality.

  • Noctowl vs. Dustox

  • om nom nom

  • Hawk Moth used Sleep Powder!

    But it failed!

  • Jesus christ made these creatures! praise Jesus

  • @bass109 i dont think he even mentioned that he did it. God did it if anything

  • @bass109 er DIdn't his DAD, you know GOD make these creatures..not Jesus...need to review Genesis Again there pal

  • Comment removed

  • The Game.

  • i hate moths there so disgusting! moths are reject butterflies!

  • the owl is lookin around like...what the fuck is THIS!?

  • this huge yellow logo on black background is annoying and fights for attention with the scene!!!!!

  • Moon dust?? Did he mean to say moth dust??

  • If the scales are microscopic, how can we see them in the video without a microscope?

  • @RichardPresley Probably the scales are in clusters and/or light reflection.

  • @RichardPresley The same way you see your dick. It's magic!

  • good old dr. congo

  • wtf bush baby??

  • i always thought moondust was a drug ha

  • i think the owls a lefty....

  • I love hawkmoths.. I hate this narrator.

  • @6327isc Vice versa, my friend. Moths and their disgusting 'scales' can go straight to hell.

  • @theshninja Search for video's of "Attacus atlas" ;)

  • lol so dats where moondust comes from. nice goliath beetle in beginning, as big as the bush baby! hawk moths are the nicest looking insects ive seen, too bad it got eaten

  • when i touch my penis, bad things happen

  • LOL.

  • owls are awesome all that scale didnt even sneeze from them. it shouldve eaten that bushbaby

  • worst narrator ever....

  • LOL that's beautiful in a sort of sad sorta way :P

  • lol Towelet vs Hawk Moth

  • drugieeee.......

  • he's smoking it..

  • moon dust... how romantic.

  • Moth scales how not romantic, nob!

  • its not a baby owl, owlets are just naturally small as adults

  • Bubu the owl from clash of the titans on a motha fucka

  • i want some of that ferry dust

  • GO OWL!

  • what is this "powder"?

  • i dont know what the powder is but i want to snort it i bet that shit will get you high bro.

  • It's not a powder really. It's scales from the moth. If you ever see moths' or butterflies' wings and bodies, they're covered with very small scales.

  • Trust the Americans to voiceover some incredble wildlife footage to make it sound like America's Funniest Animals.

  • you have an American name, Jimmy. Idiot.

  • dumb ass go snort some more powder.

  • nah but you're quite right. It looks like the guy's explaining this to kids, withexpressins like "whatthe heck" and that joyful entoation...but thats the narrator, doesnt mean its because he's american.

  • o yea well did ya ever try to get rid of a dose of fluke worm of yer micky ha. DID YA

  • i never heared of a hawk moth thats awesome

  • A bush baby is a baby in a bush ha ha..

  • did the moth di?

  • yeah. it got stuffed into the mouth of the owlet. didn't you see?

  • thats a good one

  • WHAT THE FUCK IS A BUSHBABY

  • Jenna Bush

  • Its that little nocturnal marsupial creature at 0.7 seconds with the big eyes. Its one of the primate species close to Lemurs.

  • cool bug

  • yummy..!!

  • omg

  • what??? hmmm and the fight?????

  • lol that was funny

  • man that thing looks more filling than a king-sized Snickers lol

  • lets name the moth Ashy Larry

  • Lol.

  • this is so graphic

    ;(

    LOL

  • that moth should stop smoking =]

  • lol i saw a hawk moth in my back garden.. my neighbour captured the caterpilla version of it.. it was HUGE

  • lol. My dad used to catch mantis's and then he would give then live mice. GUess who won?

  • I agree with Maldova

  • That moth is so ashy

  • Well. Moths and Butterfly's wings are covered in a fine coat of scale like things that release when touched. It looks like dust though.

  • damn moth! who he think he is?! u go get him owl! u the boss

  • NetGeo needs to really put videos long enough for us to enjoy. Putting videos just to promote the channel sucks.. Wish this video was a bit longer, don't you agree ? Ok. Thanks for the dust. Is that all from such a BIG channel with TONs of money in the pocket!!!!

  • but the short vid was cool right? I mean...come on!...look at all the dust and stuff! lol!

  • I agree. They will put on longer minutes for stupid clips of people eating some animal's testicles, but just a minute of something that happens by nature itself.

  • WAT DA FUCK THEY TALKING ABOUT...

  • that's alot of dust !

  • ooo burn, the owl owns ur face.

  • dudeskinn you seriously need to learn how to spell

  • Whas that funny?

  • YEAH GO OWL!!!!

  • bush babies

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    i didnt know bush had a baby with a monkey!

  • awesome footage- i agree

  • So why is this an Owlet and not an Owl? Is an owlet a girl owl?

  • Owlets are baby owls.. like piglets and puppies.

  • That's right, nocturnal bird, show that bitch insect who's boss.

    Fucking uppity invertebrates with their evolved defense mechanisms and whatnot.

  • neat-o =o

  • psh, why do they always put VS, theres no point, its not like the moth would've won. Why not just put "Owlet eats a Hawk moth"

    Or "Owlet eats prey"

  • lol awesome

  • Haha thats what I do with my food when I can't bite. Just put the whole thing in the mouth!

  • total rubish

  • awesome footage!

  • that wos stupid

  • i love it when i see animals eat insects. I hate insects.

  • wow moondust.

    like the picture.

  • I hate Bush Babies

  • How can you hate them??

    They're adorable<33

  • WHY!!!!

    there sooooo tasty!!!!!!

  • That is nothing. You should see theboringdispatcher go down on a donut.

  • hahahahahahajhahahahahahahahah­ahahahahahahaha so fucking true ahahahahhaha

  • HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

  • I feel sorry for the moth, the owl takes so long to kill it completely.

  • Well if th emoth kept still if would have been a much quicker death. hehe j/k

    I dont think the owl was meant to enjoy the moth's death.

  • lol owned

  • this is disturbing

  • Looks like a moon to me.

    That's not insects flying around a torch, it's the crap flying off from the moth.

  • why doesnt anyone get that he's kidding/ trying to start a flame war

  • Actually I'm not kidding. That clip was filmed in a studio.

    Thats how they filmed an owl eating a moth in the dark, its not moonlight - it's a studio light out of focus, the moon would not be able to illuminate the scene without using night vision.

    Do you see any other vegitation appart from the pearch ? No, because there isn't any.

    Thanks to all for voting my comment down, now everyone will read it! ;)

  • they used lighting sources other then the moon and they zoomed in on the owl

    dumbass

  • HAHA, I love it when people call other people a dumbass when they don't have a clue.

    The only reason you think it was filmed in a rainforest is because that idiot comentator says so at the start. Without that comment YOU probably wouldn't be able to form an oppinon of where it was filmed.

    But...you want to spend your life being a guliable fool, I won't stop you.

    Now stop pestering me with your infantile inanaties.

  • doesnt seem like you have a clue either, so stop calling other people fools

  • SILENCE FOOL!

    I only call people fools when they start calling me a dumbass when they are wrong or they say I don't have a clue when it is them that is clueless.

    The clip was filmed in a studio, I would have thought that even a fool could see it, but apparentley not.

    Now amuse me some more with your brainless comments just as a court jester would amuse his king.

    *clap* *clap*

  • yes every thing is a mass conspiracy

    you fucking nerd (SILENCE FOOL) lol, wtf?

  • Mass conspiracy? I can't help but wonder where your retarded brain got that one from.

    Maybe you should put all your limited concentration on comprehending the previous comments rather than randomly bashing out irrelevant replies.

    You dumb fuck.

  • start making some valid points, and stop hiding behind a majestic vocabulary

  • Don't just dismiss dudeskinn as a dumbass you retard. He has actually got a valid point. Just because you dont or wont believe him doesnt mean hes wrong.

  • Your right, the owl is a midget in an owl suit.

  • Haha when it first started I was like what the hell thats a friggin possum or something not an owl!!

  • Great photography, catching those scales in the light.

  • that hawk will have microscopic scales inside him/her! will he bleed?

  • never knew micro scales could cut....
