The reason for this moth’s weird posture is camouflage. It distorts its body to look like more dangerous insects, such as mantids, to discourage predators.
This is a blog celebrating the interesting world of moths, and how diverse they are. Feel free to submit anything moth related, be it art, photos, videos, or anything else!
Special thanks to the photographer who took the picture for the icon!
If you want me to ID a moth, please say your location along with a photo!
