Overview

The animal behind the card

Its caterpillar feeds on several plants, including members of the nightshade family. Adults have a short, sturdy proboscis suited to taking honey. They can enter beehives, an unusual feeding habit for a moth.

When disturbed, it can produce an audible squeak. Its appearance has inspired stories, but it is no omen of misfortune. Behind the dramatic name is a migratory insect with an extraordinary range of behaviours.

Bestiary facts

The death's-head hawkmoth can squeak and enter beehives to feed on honey.
