It fell out of a tree at my moms house. The kids found it and we set up a cage for it and they are calling it Luna. Luna is a Luna moth. They keep the green color as they become moths. They eat leaves off of birch trees(which it fell out of). My daughter did some research on it before i agreed to keep it. So it is in a 10 gallon tank and the kids are going to keep track of it and watch it cocoon and turn into a moth. They are one of the largest moths here. Can get up to 4 and a half inches across. :)

Luna right before we got it's tank ready. :)
