This huge #moth was spotted by our ecologist Ben Parkhurst during recent #monitoring at Hamelin Station Reserve. It's one seriously solid unit of #Lepidoptera. This moth is from the family Cossidae and likely the genus Endoxyla, which interestingly is the genus containing the heaviest moth species in the world, maxing out at 32g! Encounters like this are a reminder of just how much incredible life is quietly thriving on our reserves. 💚 📸 Ben Parkhurst 📍 Hamelin Station Reserve, Malgana and Nhanda Country, 250k north of Geraldton, WA #GiantMoth #HamelinStation #InsectSpotting #BushHeritageAustralia



Re: cost of meat in Japan. I have an idea. Japan has tons of airsoft players, and airsoft teaches you many of the fundamentals of marksmanship (it's like dry-fire but with feedback.) So many Japanese people are already good shots, they just need a little range time till they get used to recoil. The American south is over-run with wild hogs; so many that a good marksman can easily rack up several pigs, or a dozen or more if they're giving chase in a vehicle. All we need do is organize an efficient service for shipping the meat home, and issuing a special visa for Japanese hunters. The Japanese get to shoot guns and bring home cheap meat, and the US gets aid in fighting the porcine menace. Japan! Send us your finest samurai!
