Hawk Moths: Giants Among Butterflies (19 Pics)

#10 Hawk moths are thermophilic insects.

Most of the species live in North and South America, Europe, Australia, Africa.

#11 In tropical regions, hawk moths fly and reproduce all year round.

In temperate climates, their pupae hibernate, hiding in the ground.

#12 Some species migrate from south to north in summer (madder tongue, dead head).

Migrations may not be seasonal: when overpopulation sets in, hawk moths look for new territories to inhabit.
