Behold the rufous and black and rufous elephant shrew (Rhynchocyon petersi)! Despite its diminutive size, this critter is more closely related to elephants than it is to shrews. Itβs also distantly related to manatees, dugongs, and hyraxes. It uses its long snout to scoop up worms, ants, termites, roots, berries, and shoots to eat. To move around its territory, this fast-moving mammal creates networks of foraging trails, which also serve as escape routes from predators.Β

I woke up to THIS in MY wall.
I can't take a good picture but it's basically this moth.
Anyways I've been scared of this moth since basically always, the first time I saw one I thought that pom pom at the end of the tail was actually worms eating the moth alive.
Obviously those are not worms but still, I keep picturing the moth flying and throwing her worms at me and they are happy because they finally get to eat a human and I hate it.
Anyways, bye. ππβοΈπ
