Luna Moth

[dragoncjo]

I was dropping off my car today at cherry hill triplex and there was a huge luna moth probably on its death bed on a cars spare tire. I thought it was fake at first and closer inspection confirmed that it was indeed a luna moth. I have a book that says they are endangered is this true? Are they rare? I don't know much about insects, but seeing a luna moth in camden county in the middle of an auto lot was kind of strange.

Did you get my PM ?

Yeah my box is full again. You can use my picture of the baby eastern kingsnake I have on here. While I have seen a few more the pictures are bad because of a concrete bridge they sit under.

I don't believe they're engangered, they're not extremely common, but they're around. I had one on my house a few years ago. It was a nice thing to come home to.

Yeah I found out they weren't endangered. One of my field guides said they were, obviously a myth of some sort. Thanks for the help though.
