While hiking in New Jersey my wife found this bug. It's about the size of an adult thumb and it was trying to get out of a hole, or build a roof over a hole, or something... We don't know what it is. Do you?

  • I agree with Kawaii, looks like a moth that somehow

    deformed and it's wings are too small.

  • hmm for my opinion, it looks like a moth getting out of its cacoon... idk lol XD

  • Looks like some sort of moth larvae.

  • ööhm. i'm not sure... OMG ITS BARACK OBAMA!!!

    RUN! RUN! RUN!!!!!!

  • I raised Tussock moths before and this reminds me of one of our moths that came out. It was deformed, as it's body was normal, the wings weren't developed. Not saying it's a Tussock, but maybe this poor thing had the same problem(?)

  • That appears to be a newly hatched CECROPIA MOTH.

  • its a moth full of blood it just came out of its cocoon ,the blood moves from its body to its wings pumping them up,then the body is at normal size.

  • its called a moth thats pregnat and wants those babies out

  • Its a Big mOth
