With a wingspan up to 7 inches (18 cm), this moth is North America’s largest native moth. It naturally occurs in hardwood forests from the Rocky Mountains to the Atlantic coast, ranging as far north as Nova Scotia and as far south as Florida. (x)
These are the biggest, fluffiest gentlest moths I’ve ever met. Don’t touch them unless you have too (they’re kind of delicate and easy to quish/damage) but if you need to move one out of a high-traffic area or away from the cats they will crawl right into your hand and will hang out on your shirt if you let them.
