This Colorful Moth Might Just Be The World’s Most Beautiful Insect. Prepare To Fall In Love!

When we see moths in the house, we panic. It means that their larvae has probably eaten holes in our favorite clothing, meaning that they’ll have to be replaced. The last thing you’d ever think a moth could be is cute, since they can grow to be quite large and aren’t all that attractive to look at.

But you wouldn’t help but squeal when you see the Rosy Maple moth.

Its colors are astounding, and the species may change your mind forever when it comes to moths.

This lovely pink and yellow moth gets its color from a diet that consists entirely of maple leaves that it eats very early on in its life.

They live in the eastern parts of the United States, but they’re just as adorable anywhere you find them.

Once they become adults, they stop eating for the rest of their lives, which could be anywhere from two to nine months.

They live a lonely existence, as they’re very solitary when it comes to getting around.

They can be incredibly hard to spot, even with those wonderful colors, as they only come out during the first early hours of the evening in order to feed.

SIGN NOW! BAN THE SALE OF CRUEL ‘LIVE ANIMAL’ KEYCHAINS

>>> Sign the petition now to tell China to ban live animal keychains! <<< Turtles, fish and lizards are being stuffed and sealed into plastic bags and sold on the streets as keychains in China. The cost of these animals lives? About $1.50. Swimming in a small pool of colored water, the animals only last until the oxygen is used up. Then, they can theoretically be released and kept as pets – although it’s doubtful that the same people who think an animal makes a nifty trinket have the slightest clue about how to properly care for them. In an interview with CNN, David Neale, animal welfare director of Animals Asia said, “Lack of food and diminishing oxygen concentrations within both the water and the small amount of air in these plastic pouches will cause the animals to die in a relatively short period of time after the pouches are sealed.” 😠So Cruel😠 ACTUAL REAL LIVE ANIMALS are being sealed into tiny plastic pouches and sold as f**king ke...

Discarded Dog Was Waiting To Die, Then She Found A Reason To Live

There are no green acres for retired hunting dogs in Ireland. No master's voice calling them home for good. No curling up by the fire to warm those world-weary bones. When she outlived her usefulness in the field, all Merci could expect was a place to curl up and die. The 10-year-old sighthound, also known as a lurcher, found just that in a farmer's shed. Then, unexpectedly, she found mercy. Someone spotted the ailing animal and got in touch with Gina Hetherington, founder of PAWS Animal Rescue Ireland .

In a word, she was emaciated. "The fleas were literally crawling off her he...
