What is a "tiger moth"?
A tiger moth, belonging to the family Erebidae, is a captivating insect known for its striking appearance and unique characteristics. Tiger moths typically have vibrant patterns and colors on their wings, ranging from bold black and white stripes to vibrant shades of orange and yellow. These moths are often active during the twilight hours and are well-equipped with robust bodies and strong flying capabilities. Tiger moths possess a remarkable defense mechanism known as "aposematism," where their bright colors serve as a warning signal to potential predators, indicating their toxicity or unpleasant taste.
