"A Madagascan moon moth lives for not more than five or six days. It does not feed, but saps from from the supplies built up as caterpillar before. Even if it would like to eat, there is no chance to do so: Through the centuries, the comet moth’s trunk has shriveled and can’t be used anymore." source > http://www.madamagazine.com/en/ein-kurzes-buntes-leben-der-kometenfalter/
