It’s the fact that 20 of them didn’t make it is what makes it a little saddening. But, the ones that perished only accounted for 1 out of every 10 potential moths. When compared to the other 9 that survived, he happiness for the ones that lived outweighs the sadness for the ones that died.

Animals are amazing creatures. Our love for animals is something that I think 99% of people have in common. No matter what your background is; whether you’re male or female; black, white, brown, yellow, red, or other; no matter what your religion you are or what your political views are; almost everyone loves animals & finds them to be miraculous creatures. We live in a seemingly ever increasingly polarized country (& world for that matter) & sometimes it can feel like we have nothing in common with people who have different political, cultural, or religious views than our own but one thing that kinda unites all of us & something that we can agree upon & use to help us relate to one another & realize that we aren’t necessarily as different as it may sometimes seem, is our shared love for animals. I think there are certain financial & political institutions that want us divided against each other because it’s very profitable for them & it gives them tremendous power over us & also distracts the public from their misdeeds & failures as public figures, policy makers, & public institutions. But I think people are waking up to the scam & realizing that it’s a small percentage of people who are really causing a lot of the problems & that most of us are just decent, hardworking, kind-hearted, intelligent, capable, individuals who just want a fair shake to provide for themselves & their families without being micro-managed or screwed over by a small group of strangers who think they should be the ones that tell the rest of humanity what to do. Anyway, I digress. Great video & God bless.

That moth momma would be forever grateful if she knew how well you took care of her babies. Nice Job 👍

Personally I don’t think that these are silk moths. In my hometown silk moths are very common and I used to keep them as pets as a child. The silk moth caterpillars are white and very soft, they have a skin that is extremely unique and looks like a series of tiny marshmallows all squeezed together (it’s also similar to the touch). Their cocoons are the softest, whitest fibers you could ever find, and the moths are also a creamy, whitish color, without any particular sign on the wings, which btw are far smaller compared to their bodies. This looks more like a variety of Royal Moth, if I had to make a guess

It’s so strange, in my country of birth only the bombyx mori is called a “silk moth”... don’t know why there’s this difference, but I guess because people have bred so many of them in the last 200 years that they have basically become endemic to the area.

This video is not promoting a healthy message. What are the effects of having a massively inflated population of caterpillars that make it to adulthood in this environment? We don't know where this was filmed, is this species native or invasive? This video encourages people to interact with nature in ways that could be potentially harmful to the environment around it because you're disrupting the natural cycle of the ecosystem. I'm not saying you shouldn't be kind to nature, I'm saying that you should have the knowledge of what you're doing before you try to do it and even if the person in the video has that knowledge is not communicated in the video so it's encouraging people to act without knowing the consequences.

Polyphemus moths surprisingly don’t have mouths so their adult lifespan last for a very short time of 4 days. Considering their total lifespan is 3 months, the amount of effort put into raising them all would make you the most prominent figure in their lives. Life may be fleeting for them compared to us, but I’d say it meant everything to them and that’s what makes it special. Thanks, u da best
