Now its harmless and just fun and games but one day Dosutroya will pop up its ugly mug out of one of these cocoons and fire his LAZORS and destroy the city xD
Sweet! I have five Cepropia cocoons at this time. Unsure about one or two, possibly Prometeus? How does one tell. I have been hiking and collecting for the past couple years for enjoyment, education and safe release..... Thanks much!
He's gorgeous!! I don't understand why some people freak out when they see a giant moth like this. If they did any research at all, they'd find out these creatures are as harmless to humans as a butterfly.
My grandpa caught one of these as a caterpillar. He said it was one of the ugliest things he has ever seen. The next time I saw it, it was a cocoon. We put it in a container and left it there for almost 6 months or something like that. When it hatched it was the most beautiful insect I had ever seen
Fantastique! Il m'est arrivé d'attraper ce que je crois etre un Actias Luna lorsque je je demeurais dans les Laurentides. C'était aussi gros que celui dans cette vidéo. J'avais jamais rien vu d'aussi fabuleux. Il m'avais alors tenu compagnie une bonne heure, puis je l'ai laissé partir... à regret.
Je l'aurais bien gardé car les couleurs étaient superbes mais c'est bien plus beau dans son milieu naturel ^^ En le relâchant, il va reproduire et ça me donne la chance d'en apercevoir d'autres! Ce sont toujours de belles surprises l'été durant les chaudes soirées de voir les beaux papillons de nuit attirés par les lumières.
beautiful wings!

Phalène is one type of moth, not the french word for moth. We don't have a specific name for moth in french, we say papillon de nuit.

I thought the french word for moth was 'phalène' ?
Anyway, very big and very beautiful insect, I can't help but notice some are this colour and some are red, is that gender depndent?
My Mum is scared of moths, D:
