Given its unusual skull-like marking, it's probably not surprising that the Death's Head Moth was once considered a bad omen. However, the moth is completely harmless and even squeaks to deter predators!

Although many moths drink nectar from flowers, the death's head moth mostly feeds on honey. To protect themselves, the moth produces a chemical to soothe the bees and is able to enter the hive unharmed.
