*~About Death's Head Moths~*

The death's head hawkmoth, officially the Acherontia atropos, is best known for the skull-like design that adorns its back. This striking design has given it a sinister reputation in popular culture and it is commonly associated with the supernatural and death. It is actually harmless and pretty cute though and is one of the only species of moths that can actually squeak to ward off predators.
