Join us to uncover both the deceitful and delightful world of the extraordinary Death's-Head Hawkmoth and how global warming might make them more than an occasional visitor here.
Most moths feed by drinking nectar from flowers. However, some like the death's-head hawkmoth have more unusual feeding habits. It steals honey from honeybee combs using strategies such as mimicking bee behaviour and smell, creating problems for apiarists in tropical countries. Join Museum scientist Ian Kitching to uncover both the deceitful and delightful world of these extraordinary creatures and how global warming might make them more than an occasional visitor here.
