Discovery of the Snakehead Moth - Green World

 

Rare wild snakehead moth discovered in Green World!

The snake-headed moth (Attacus atlas) is the world's largest moth, reaching up to 40 centimeters in wingspan—larger than a hand! Its forewings are shaped like snake heads, hence its name, which serves to intimidate predators.

 

In recent years, due to environmental destruction, the snakehead moth, which has a lifespan of only two weeks, has become a rare and uncommon species.

It can only be found in places with suitable and healthy ecosystems.
