neil-gaiman:odditiesoflife:Venezuelan Poodle MothThe Venezuelan poodle moth was first captured on film by Dr. Arthur Anker of Bishkek, Krgyzstan, who posted all 75 photographs of his time at the Gran Sabana National Park on Flickr. His trip to the Venezuelan park didn’t gain much fame at the time. However, another researcher, Dr. Karl Shuker, saw a picture of the fuzzy little critter online and took interest. It was found that not only is this a new species of moth, but it may very well be an entirely new species of insect altogether.Also, it cries out for thought balloons, of the FUCK OFF, I AM PONDERING THE MEANING OF LIFE variety. -- source link
