The Hickory Horned Devil Moth

If there was ever a name that would scare the living daylights out of someone, it would probably be this. The Hickory Horned Devil. The funniest part is that this is not actually that much of a devil and more of a moth. It can be found in the southern and eastern parts of the US, and despite the name of the creature, it is actually quite harmless and very beautiful.

It is a friendly giant with horns that actually turns into a beautiful butterfly as it grows.
