Imagine being walking down the street and finding a kind of gigantic insect that you have never seen before and that surprises you as well as scares you. That could only happen in Australia. And so it happened to Pam Taylor, a woman from the city of Brisbane (Queensland, Australia) who came across a huge moth perched on a branch.
The woman shared her finding on Tuesday at a insect fan facebook group and it surprised users by its size, since it was even bigger than his hand.
Some netizens did not know what kind of insect it was, but others pointed out that it could be a giant wood moth, a species from Australia and New Zealand that can measure up to 15 centimeters long and 23 wide with open wings.
As Pam Taylor explained, this Wednesday she returned to check the condition of the bug after there had been a storm during the night and, to her surprise, she found not only that it was still there, but that there was another one he was mating with. “The moth has certainly been busy,” he commented in his own post.
