Luna Moth

Actias luna

Description:

Around 3" in length. Bright green, with light spots all over.

Notes:

I had a camper bring this guy to me. Decided to make a habitat and see if it would form a cocoon. I put it in a container with some Red Maple leaves and it almost immediately began to cocoon. I'll follow up with more pictures later.
